“I just wanted to thank you for all of the help you have given me. Your groups allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of myself. You possess remarkable insight and make connections that astonish me. Often you are able to articulate ideas that I cannot word for myself.

You encouraged me to discover my true identity and separate myself from my eating disorder. I can't thank you enough.”
