Eating Disorders Support Group
This weekly group provides a safe place to discuss the issues of disordered eating.
The group process offers a rich opportunity to learn how others deal with the same challenges and to learn coping skills that might help you with your day-to-day struggle.
Co-led by Terry Simpson, PsyD and Gabriela Pastor, MA, the group will meet at the Krevoy Institute for $50 per session. Please call Gabriela at 832-366-4965 if you would like to attend.
Individual nutrition counseling sessions with Registered Dietitian Nutritionist David Wiss are available to those who are ready!
Philosophy
The Susan B. Krevoy Eating Disorder Program for Adults and Adolescents is an affordable eating disorder treatment option that provides exceptional care in the greater Los Angeles area. True to our mission, we offer individualized outpatient treatment for individuals suffering from eating disorders including anorexia, bulimia and binge eating disorders. Our staff consists of skilled and compassionate treatment professionals including licensed psychologists and psychotherapists, registered dietitians and medical professionals who offer a safe, nurturing environment where you can heal.
Food and eating patterns frequently reflect the expression of unmet needs. They often mask anger, anxiety, depression, fear, loneliness or other feelings. Our treatment includes individual, group and family psychotherapy, nutritional counseling, cognitive groups on goal setting and how to balance mind, body and spirit. Our goal is to help you discover the hidden meaning behind your struggle and help you learn how to deal with these feelings in healthier ways.
The Krevoy Institute also provides training for clinicians who are treating the eating disorder population. Our short courses will enhance clinical skills with techniques that will facilitate long term recovery.
