Clinical FAQ
Exercise?
Dosed. Not a punishment.
Will you weigh me every visit?
Only if it is clinically useful and not harmful to your eating-disorder recovery.
Crisis / medical instability?
ER. Especially with restriction and electrolyte risk.
Telehealth?
Follow-up if you are in Florida. Exams as needed in Hollywood.
Is binge-eating an eating disorder?
Binge-eating disorder is a DSM-5-TR diagnosis. We screen for it.
Supplements?

Is your practice discreet for Aventura patients?
Absolutely. We maintain strict HIPAA compliance, and our telehealth option ensures complete privacy. Many Aventura patients prefer virtual appointments from their residence or office.
Do you address image-related anxiety and mood disorders?
Yes. We treat the full spectrum of anxiety and mood disorders, including those related to social pressure, perfectionism, and performance expectations common in high-achieving communities.
