Dominique White, LCSW
Hi, I’m Dominique and I am a licensed psychotherapist. I have worked in the eating disorders field for almost 10 years and received my training at New York Presbyterian Hospital-Payne Whitney Westchester. I have had the opportunity to work with many adolescences, adults and their families navigating towards recovery at the inpatient, PHP, IOP and outpatient level. I have also worked with and supported many individuals struggling with co-occurring disorders.
Over my years working at many different levels of care, I have learned the importance of reaching out to those in marginalized groups as their eating disorders often go undiagnosed. Eating disorders affect people of all genders, ages, races, ethnicities, body shapes, sexual orientations, and socioeconomic statuses. They are present in, and a risk to, all families and communities.
My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental, and empowering space for all people to explore the depths of their emotions, thoughts and feelings while working towards recovery. Using supportive reflection and a strengths-based perspective, I approach each situation with empathy while centering the experience of the individual. My work is established in cultural sensitivity, Health at Every Size®, Intuitive Eating, and social justice.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York State. I hold a Master of Social Work from Fordham University. I have received training in Family-Based Treatment and have also completed additional training in Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT-E) through the Centre for Research on Eating Disorders at Oxford.
