EATING DISORDERS

Feel Supported.

Danielle Shelov has been an active part of the eating disorder community in NYC for over 12 years. Shelov Psychology Group recognizes that Eating Disorders are a diagnosis that parents, families and individuals fear. However, the approach taken in our practice is that eating disorders can and should be treated, not feared.

 

Treatment Approach

The approach to treatment is systematic and consistent. Treatment may require working with a team of professionals: a nutritionist, a psychiatrist and a primary care physician with experience in treating eating disorders. Our job is to find this team for you. Once this team is established the therapist serves as the quarterback, keeping the team connected, and meeting with the patient weekly, or perhaps multiple times per week if needed.

The treatment is tailored to each patient, and to each specific eating disorder. We will determine what each patient needs, how to best address and confront their eating disorder, and ultimately find a way to have our patients hear us.

Our Commitment to You

We are committed to helping our patients toward recovery and are incredibly active in the treatment process. We are also accessible. Part of this treatment is teaming up with the family or individual to confront this eating disorder head on. We conceptualize this as outnumbering and outsmarting the eating disorder, until the patient becomes more comfortable waging the fight on their own.
