Eating Disorders Therapists in Dunwoody, GA

Are you tired of not living fully? I want to help you to create your life worth living. A long time ago you made decisions about yourself and the world. It is possible to re-decide outdated beliefs. After over 30 years as a therapist I have pulled together what I have found to be the most effective methods to create change. My approach is interactive, respectful and down-to-earth. When we meet, I will listen carefully, help you clarify your feelings and help you figure out what you can do to make your situation better. I will share with you any ideas, tools or skills I believe might help you get to where you want to be.

Sharon R Peterson, LCSW, CEDS: Making the decision to begin therapy is not an easy one. But, it can be one of the best decisions you can make to empower yourself & move beyond unresolved issues or to help find the right path to take to improve your life or to recover. Psychotherapy is a collaborative approach between a therapist and client. At Psychotherapy Services of Atlanta, we will help you learn more about your condition, your moods, feelings, thoughts and behaviors. Which, in turn, will help you learn how to take control of your life and respond to challenging situations with healthy coping skills.

I am a Therapeutic Recreation & Experiential Specialist with expertise in Wellness Consulting, Recovery Support/Coaching, & Expressive/Experiential Therapies. I collaborate with clinicians (dietitians, therapists, physicians) to support their clients who have made tremendous progress but are not yet ready for complete independence and need more hands-on support and accountability than individual sessions can provide. With over 25 years experience as an adjunct therapist, I am a bridge to self-sufficiency, working with the out-patient team to fill in the gap between individual therapy and actual behavioral follow-through.

Please reach out for any eating disorder concerns and let me offer guidance. I am certified as an eating disorder registered dietitian and also a therapist. My company name is Eating Solutions!

Often our life experiences create stories through which we relate to ourselves, others, and the world. You may be full of doubts about your abilities, your future, even your self worth. Maybe you wonder if you are "enough," and find that you are constantly trying to meet everyone else’s expectations. Maybe you believe that other's needs should take priority over your own. You don’t have to be powerless. Together we can find a way forward. Through mindfulness techniques and a compassion centered approach, I work to support women in accessing their inner power, developing self-trust, and building the life they want.

At times everyone struggles and feels overwhelmed by challenging events (past or present), confusing feelings, and painful thoughts. It is helpful to have a confidential, objective, and experienced guide to sort through all this. I understand your cares and struggles. Those things that you feel as if you lost in childhood, teen years and even now can be replaced. You can see all things differently, and live the rest of your life with a different perspective, in newness loving yourself like you have never loved yourself before. You are worth it, you deserve it. This is a shared journey toward healing and creating your best life.

I am a clinical psychologist specializing in anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and disordered eating. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory. I believe that healing occurs through the establishment of a trusted therapeutic relationship, increased self-awareness, healthy emotional expression and meaningful relationships. In helping patients gain greater self understanding, I empower them to break away from the cycles that no longer serve them and make choices that enable them to lead more satisfying and meaningful lives.

I am passionate about working with people with substance abuse concerns, trauma, family conflict, and difficulty coping. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I strive to make any difficult life experience more manageable while gently guiding my clients and their families towards the life they want and see for themselves. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults utilizing a client-centered, supportive approach. I strive to make my office a safe, judgement-free space where my clients can discuss their struggles and get the support they need.
