Health at Every Size® Healthcare Provider Listing

I created Stark Therapy Group in 2020 after being in private practice for 5 years. I wanted to expand my reach and be able to serve more individuals and families. I have always valued teaching and supervising the therapists in my practice has been and incredible addition to my clinical work. I have been in the field since 2009 and been working clinically since 2013. I have worked for major corporations and hospitals and ultimately landed in private practice in 2015. I have two master's degrees ( MSc in social psychology from University of Sussex; and MSSW in Adv. Clinical Practice from Columbia School of Social Work). I am Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, hold a Level 1 EMDR certification and have had many years of supervision and courses/workshop trainings in IFS. I formally learned about HAES in 2014 after I quit working at a treatment center due to disagreeing with a lot of the clinical decisions being made. At the time I didn't know the name, nor the extent of fatphobia or the major role it played in the eating disorder world. It wasn't until 2017 that I more fully learned and unlearned about anti- fatness and, in term fat positivity. As someone with thin privilege, I will never stop my learning and unlearning.
