Our vision

We envision a world where complete recovery from eating disorders is possible for everyone, and where people live free from food and weight preoccupation.

Our mission

At Mindfullness, our mission is to provide compassionate, specialized mental health care for people of all ages struggling with eating disorders and body image concerns.

Through a warm, supportive environment and evidence-based therapy, we guide our clients on their journey to recovery, helping them develop a healthy relationship with food, their bodies, and themselves.

We honor the courage it takes to seek change and stand alongside our clients every step of the way, addressing not only eating disorders but also related challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

Our story

Mindfullness was founded in 2012 by Dr. Kristine Vazzano who believed that every person deserves access to compassionate, evidence-based care, and the constant reminder that recovery is possible.

 

What began as one clinician's passion has now grown into a trusted recovery center that has served hundreds of individuals on their healing journey.

 

Over the years, Mindfullness has had the privilege of witnessing remarkable transformations. Our patients have successfully recovered and moved forward to experience lives authentic to themselves—establishing families, achieving professional success, and finding personal fulfillment while leaving their eating disorders behind.

​

Our caring and experienced clinicians understand that recovery looks different for each individual. That's why our approach combines clinical expertise with genuine compassion, creating a supportive environment where healing can flourish.

 

We stand as living proof that with the right support, there is always hope.
