Let’s heal the way you see yourself
We know that beneath disordered eating or a negative body image, is a negative sense of self.
Our team can help you.
Our healing approach is different:
Instead of navigating between multiple providers at different facilities, you work directly with our body image therapist, Alexa Gavrilov, who coordinates your entire treatment plan.
This means that your care is seamless, as Alexa collaborates directly with other specialists in our office—whether it's dietitians, doctors, or other therapists—to tailor every aspect of your treatment plan to your unique needs: mind, body, and being.
Our coordinated healing approach not only saves you time but also ensures that all aspects of your well-being are addressed in a collaborative and holistic manner.
Together, we can help you truly heal how you see yourself.

Working with our dietitians
Working with the dietitians at our practice is a holistic experience. They don’t just focus on nutritional needs; they also dive into the emotions and thoughts behind your relationship with food.
