Are you exhausted from the constant battle in your mind?

You may find yourself obsessing over food and your body throughout the day. Every meal feels like a test, and you spend endless time analyzing what you eat. Your thoughts, time, and energy are consumed by these struggles, leaving you drained and overwhelmed.

Perhaps you avoid eating in front of others or feel the need to plan every detail of meals at restaurants, spending hours reviewing menus for the “best option.” Even when you’re out, it’s hard to be present. Instead, you’re consumed by comparisons and self-criticism—thinking about how much you’re eating, how you appear to others, and whether you measure up.

No matter how hard you try, it never feels like enough. You’re left feeling inadequate and wondering if recovery is even possible.

You don’t have to feel this way forever. Change is possible, and I’m here to help.

 NYC Psychotherapy FAQs

  • “Therapist” is an umbrella term and can refer to many different types of therapist including physical therapists, occupational therapists and mental health therapists. A “psychotherapist” refers more specifically to a mental health therapist who uses psychological therapeutic interventions.

  • Yes, a psychotherapist is qualified to be able to diagnose a client.

  • As a psychotherapist, I can attest that psychotherapy does work. If someone is receiving psychotherapy and it does not seem to be working, it’s generally because the therapist isn’t able or effective in treating whatever issue the client is presenting. Alternatively, it can be because the client isn’t taking in the therapy interventions which may be because additional therapies may be needed or simply a lack of willingness to try the therapy.
