Many people suffer from eating disorders and do not even realize that they have a problem. You may be eating large amounts of food at one time and then using laxatives or vomiting to get rid of what you ate, or you could be cutting your calories so low that you are suffering from malnutrition as well. This is more common than you may think, and the Shasta Lake mental health care providers can help.
Shasta Lake, California is named after the large body of water that its 10 thousand residents and many visitors enjoy on a daily basis. The city started out as five small towns that were blended to become one community. Even if you do not like water sports, you can enjoy just looking at the beautiful lake, which is a great way to destress. However, you should talk to a professional right away about getting treatment for your eating disorder.

Eliot Rosenstock
Hello, my name is Eliot Rosenstock. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I want to help you feel better. Let’s talk about what you want, and where you want to go in life. In my practice, I utilize dream analysis as well as a more cognitive-rational approach to integrate the unconscious and conscious mind to achieve your desired result from therapy. When you come to therapy, you want a concrete, positive change in your life. I don’t believe the idea that you come to therapy to feel better is very complex, nor do I believe you need your values totally rearranged to achieve a result which is life changing! Some therapists offer you a totally different way of seeing things, where as I want to offer you a clearer you. I don’t want to turn you into me, nor do I offer you a fast food religious experience. Through our conscious minds as well as our unconscious minds, we hold the key to a life where we feel better, more fulfilled, and less compromised by negative feelings and symptoms. Let’s help get you to the best you: feeling good, and thinking clearly!

I have worked in a private practice and in clinics with clients with a wide range of issues, including; but not limited to grief recovery, relationship problems, anxiety, and depression. I have work with children, adolescents, couples and adult clients. It often takes courage to seek therapy. Congratulations on taking the first step. Together we will look for solutions and resources to help you with what you are going through. My style of therapy is warm, solution-focused and interactive. I am a humanistic therapist who believes that you are the center of therapy. My approach is combine talk therapy with activities you will complete and bring back to therapy to reach your goals in both brief and long term therapy. Of course, if your preference is just talk therapy, we can focus on that solely. I look forward to working with you.
