Leslie Samdahl
Introduction
During the time I worked at the residential eating disorder treatment center, I found my curiosity piqued by the complexity of eating disorders. I became passionate about helping my clients return to a place of listening to and trusting their bodies rather than giving power to the “rules” about food they had been taught. In my practice, I utilize the principles of intuitive eating and take a Health-at-Every-Size approach to help people feel at ease in their bodies and in the presence of food. In addition to the years of experience working with eating disorders and body image issues at the residential and outpatient level, I have also seen many within my private practice who have struggled with depression and other mood disorders, anxiety disorders, grief, low self-worth and self-esteem, or have a history of trauma to process and learn to cope with. Clients who enter my office feel safe, accepted, and understood. There will be moments of laughter amid the tears and pain, and there will be hard work. No matter what your journey of healing looks like, I will support you and help you to make changes that are necessary to live a wholeheartedly fulfilling life.
