Meet Paloma

Licensed Psychotherapist • Eating Disorder Therapist

I am a psychotherapist practicing in the Hudson Valley and virtually throughout NY state.

I earned my masters in Social Work from NYU in 2002 and initially worked with at risk youth and families in NYC.

I’ve specialized in the treatment of eating disorders since 2008. I received 2 years of postmasters training at The Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy, Center for the Study of Anorexia and Bulimia, developing my specialty in the treatment of eating disorders.

A great joy in my career has been the opportunity to supervise masters level Columbia University and NYU graduate students in their own developing careers as Psychotherapists working in eating disorders.

Eating Disorder Experience

I’ve been fortunate to work at different levels of care in eating disorder treatment (day treatment, intensive outpatient, group and meal support).

I was a valued Psychotherapist in two leading NYC eating disorder programs for nearly 10 years, before moving entirely to private practice.

Because of the many years working in programs, I’ve developed a skill set I can pull from to offer my clients innovative and comprehensive care- bringing the healing and evidence based teachings of program to clients at home.

I have a deep, deep respect for the clients I work with and the challenges they face.

Through the years I’ve had the opportunity and honor to see growth and health in many forms.

I hope and attempt to build a safe, trusting and supportive therapeutic space for my clients.

I treat eating disorders from a psychodynamic lens, weaving in behavioral techniques, such as CBT and DBT as needed.

The wound is the place where the Light enters you.
