Is your teen...
We take a whole-health approach and focus on self-care-skills for high school, college, & beyond...
HOW WE WORK WITH TEENS:
~ We treat teens as individuals but we include parents every step of the way.
~ Our treatment approach is individualized, flexible, and based on sound, evidenced-based adolescent nutrition.
~ To be truly effective, we combine nutrition counseling with other therapeutic models (where appropriate), which include dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Intuitive and Interoceptive Eating, mindfulness based therapies, and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
~ If your teen needs more support we have a great referral network of adolescent professionals around the DC metropolitan area
~ IS YOUR TEEN REALLY BUSY??? WORK WITH US BY TELEHEALTH (video conferencing)
Have a teen in COLLEGE?
College presents a number of challenges:
-
Dining halls can be overwhelming
-
Irregular class schedules lead to irregular eating times
-
Late night social eating is the norm
-
Body image can suffer on campus, which can lead to disordered eating
-
College classes can be stressful!
Our dietitians are college specialists. We can help your teen navigate dorm cafeterias, apartment living, managing stress, and self-regulating emotions.
Need a booster session mid-semester? No problem! We can work together by phone or video conference.
We teach teens to care for their bodies with love and self-respect.
