As a therapist who specializes in treating eating disorders, I have encountered many clients who also exhibit symptoms of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). 

GLP-1 receptor agonists—such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro—were originally developed to manage type 2 diabetes, but their use has rapidly expanded due to their ability to suppress appetite and promote weight loss. As an eating disorder therapist, I see both the potential and the pitfalls of these medications when used by individuals struggling with disordered eating.

As a couples therapist, one of the most common dynamics I help couples and individuals navigate is the interplay of different attachment styles.

As human beings, we all have basic needs. Many people understand the physiological needs like food, water, and shelter. But, in addition to that, one of our basic needs is belonging. This includes affection, connection, intimacy, and sex.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, better known as OCD, is a type of mental health condition that often gets thrown around when people have repetitive habits or quirky behaviors.

Sex and intimacy aren't always planned and executed to perfection. Those movie scenes where the perfect moment leads to this seemingly choreographed rhythm, all while a perfectly matched soundtrack plays in the background are not true reality.

Having effective communication habits is one of the biggest foundational pieces to the puzzle of having a healthy relationship. Unfortunately, many couples often fall victim to communication mistakes and pitfalls that can cause separation.

For those who have experienced trauma, the echoes of the past can disrupt the present. Flashbacks and nightmares are potent manifestations of the lingering effects of trauma that force individuals to relive their most distressing experiences.

Eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy continues to grow in popularity. While it’s not a new therapy, it was originally designed to help people dealing with PTSD.

Eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy has become increasingly popular in recent years for a variety of reasons.

Most people would probably say they could spot signs of physical abuse, but not all abuse is that obvious in a relationship. 

When you think of a healthy relationship, disagreeing with your partner probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. But even the healthiest, happiest couples disagree.

It’s easy to understand how anxiety can be impacted by environmental factors. Stressful situations, harmful relationships, and financial problems — they can all trigger anxious thoughts. 

Even if you and your partner are on the same page about couples therapy, you might be putting off actually setting up an appointment because you’re worried you’ll have to open up about certain topics. 

ADHD and anxiety don’t discriminate between men and women. They are conditions that can impact anyone. However, that doesn’t mean they always look the same.

Trauma bonding is more than just an attachment to an abuser. It is a deep, powerful, emotional connection that is often very cyclical, which makes it hard to escape.

People consider couples therapy for a variety of reasons. Whether you feel like your relationship needs some help or you just want to boost your bond with your partner, therapy can be a great way to feel closer and learn some new strategies to implement. 

Even in the 21st century, women face a variety of challenges in the everyday workplace. Unfortunately, these issues get overlooked far too often.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is often used to help treat trauma and the effects of PTSD. But, its effectiveness has spilled over when it comes to helping with a variety of other issues, including anxiety and depression. 

If you’re concerned that someone you care about is dealing with an eating disorder, you might not know how to approach them. After all, you don’t want to offend them or trigger them in any way.
