Updated Dec. 2024: I am accepting new individual, couples, and family clients. I am Larissa, a specialist in treating eating disorders and neurodivergence. I have successfully worked with many clients to improve binging, restrictive, and purging behaviors, ARFID, sensory issues, a limited food variety (“picky eaters”), concentration and focus skills, and coping with chronic illness. I give positive, trauma-informed care without sugar coating of the challenges of mental health recovery. I provide context behind the development and maintenance of symptoms while holding my clients accountable for what is within their own control.
While working at Walden Behavioral Care in their partial hospitalization programs (PHP) and intensive outpatient programs (IOP), I created and ran the first nationwide group for neurodivergent patients. I help my clients explore how they can feel more able to change painful coping behaviors, improve their quality of life, and improve negative self image.
I am neurodivergent, a member of the LGBTQI+ community, have personal experience with hypermobility and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, and have been recovered from an eating disorder for 9 years. I use my unique combination of evidence-based knowledge with personal and professional experience to tailor to a client's individual needs. I treat teens and adults, 13+.
