Welcome to another episode of Understanding Disordered Eating Podcast. Today, we will be sitting down with one of my dear friends and one of New York City's best therapists, named by New York Magazine, Jennifer Glass. Jennifer graduated from NYU with a master's in social work, completed her post grad training in psychodynamic psychotherapy at Training Institute for Mental health, and has a private practice in NYC.

In this episode, we will dive right into how to use curiosity to develop resilience, and how this then provides us with intentional choice. Let’s dive in!
