Meet Elizabeth Mariutto, PsyD, CEDS-C, Clinical Director of Eating Disorder Services and staff psychologist at the Lindner Center of HOPE! Dr. Mariutto compassionately supports individuals and families dealing with mood, anxiety, self-harm and eating disordered symptoms on their journey to recovery. She does so by creating a safe, accepting environment where patients can explore the underlying causes of their challenges and work towards healing. She leads intuitive eating and self-compassion groups, consults on residential units, and provides individual therapy in our adult partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs. Her heartfelt approach makes a significant difference in the lives of those she supports. Dr. Mariutto is an incredible leader and role model for her team!

Holding space for feelings, whether your own or someone else's, means fostering a safe, accepting environment where thoughts and emotions can be freely expressed, genuinely listened to, and met without judgment or the urge to fix. 🪐☄️🚀
