About Kristen L. Caron, MA, MFT
For over 20 years, I have practiced as a licensed psychotherapist and published nutritionist specializing in eating disorder recovery, obesity and body image issues. For 13 years, I practiced in an endocrinology practice specializing in obesity and diabetes. Many of my patients presented with BED.
My approach to the treatment of obesity, eating disorders recovery and/or any maladaptive eating behavior is comprehensive. By integrating both the psychological and physiological aspects of these issues, I help clients achieve their optimum level of health, both emotionally and physically.
Education is a fundamental part of recovery from unhealthy eating behaviors. I provide the tools to achieve emotional balance and physical well being- no matter what size. For over 13 years, I practiced in an endocrinology practice specializing in obesity and diabetes furthering my expertise in treating BED.
