About Eating Disorders and Disordered Eating

Debra Gionet, LCSW works with adults and teens experiencing problems with eating including Bulimia, Anorexia Nervosa and Binge Eating. Common warning signs of disordered eating include extremely limiting food intake, eating a lot of food in a small amount of time or eating when not hungry and/or to deal with emotions and stress, purging eaten food, more and more time spent planning and thinking where, what, and when to eat next, and being overly concerned about weight and body shape. Besides the pain these conditions cause, eating issues are serious and can be life threatening. Debra takes a team approach in working with clients with eating disorders as appropriate and is currently obtaining an eating disorders treatment certificate through JFK University in Pleasant Hill , CA . The expected date of completion is November 2007.
