Eating Disorders For Children, Adolescents, and Adults

I understand how frightening it feels when food becomes the enemy. As a Beverly Hills psychiatrist specializing in children psychiatry and adolescent psychiatry, I’ve walked alongside countless families battling eating disorders. My approach goes beyond symptoms to address the whole person. Whether your child struggles with anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating disorder, I provide compassionate care that honors their unique story. My practice serves families throughout Los Angeles, offering hope when eating disorders feel overwhelming.

Each eating disorder tells a different story, yet patterns emerge. I’ve treated young children who suddenly refuse meals and teenagers whose relationship with food controls their lives. My expertise in adolescent psychiatry helps me recognize early warning signs that parents often miss. Recovery isn’t just about weight restoration or stopping harmful behaviors. Instead, I focus on rebuilding your child’s relationship with food, their body, and themselves. My Beverly Hills practice provides a safe space where families can heal together.

Treatment requires patience, understanding, and specialized expertise in children psychiatry. I combine evidence-based therapies with medication management when appropriate, always involving families in the process. My Los Angeles patients benefit from my collaborative approach with nutritionists, therapists, and medical doctors. Recovery happens when we address underlying trauma, anxiety, depression, and family dynamics that fuel eating disorders. I’ve seen remarkable transformations when families commit to this comprehensive approach to healing.

What makes my practice different is my commitment to your family’s long-term success. I don’t just treat symptoms; I help rebuild lives. My experience with adolescent psychiatry in Beverly Hills has taught me that eating disorders often mask deeper emotional pain. Together, we’ll uncover these root causes while developing healthy coping strategies. Your child deserves more than just survival – they deserve to thrive. If you’re ready to begin this journey, I’m here to guide your family toward lasting recovery and renewed hope.
