Philosophy
I believe recovery is possible for all, and the best way to help people into recovery is individualized care with providers that are compassionate, nonjudgemental, nonviolent, forgiving, and mindful.
Why VERY?
I founded VERY to provide a home for providers and patients that want to work to achieve eating recovery for life for millions. Our core values are heart, expert, access, recovery, and dedicated (“HEARD”). VERY aligns all decisions around helping millions and hearing our patients and providers.
