In-person care in Boca Raton, Houston, Chicago & Denver
In-person sessions happen with the team based in each city: clinical care in Boca Raton, Houston, Chicago, and Denver, plus in-person caregiver mentorship with Nina Jolly in Austin. In every city, the whole team is one telehealth session away, and most patients combine the two.
Boca Raton
Our practice headquarters, where Drs. Zach and Allie Appenzeller and Dr. Natalia Levy see patients in person. Everything we do is here, for children, adolescents, and adults: FBT, CBT-E, and CBT-AR for eating disorders; ERP for OCD and anxiety; PE and CPT for trauma; perinatal mental health; Parent Management Training for defiant behavior; DBT and RO-DBT for longstanding patterns. In-home intensives for eating disorders and OCD & anxiety across South Florida, virtual intensives at each clinician's standard session rate, and the rest of our team by telehealth.

Houston
Our Texas home base, where Dr. Kaitlin Hill and Dr. Kimberly Osborn see patients in person: FBT and CBT-E for eating disorders, ERP for OCD, exposure-based CBT for anxiety, and RO-DBT and DBT for the overcontrolled and undercontrolled patterns that often accompany them. In-home intensives for eating disorders and OCD & anxiety across the Greater Houston area, virtual intensives at each clinician's standard session rate, and every other clinician on our team by telehealth across Texas.
Austin
Everything we do, by telehealth across Texas: eating disorders, OCD, anxiety, trauma, perinatal mental health, defiant behavior, and virtual intensives for eating disorders and OCD & anxiety at each clinician's standard session rate. In person, Nina Jolly, a parent who helped her own child recover from anorexia through Family-Based Treatment, mentors Austin caregivers through the same daily work.
Denver
Specialty care in person from Eliza Lanzillo, PhD: CBT-E and FBT for eating disorders, ERP for OCD and anxiety, particular depth in the complex cases where they co-occur, and a distinct specialty in self-harm and suicidality. In-home intensives for eating disorders and OCD & anxiety across the Denver metro area, virtual intensives at each clinician's standard session rate, and every other clinician on our team by telehealth across Colorado.
Chicago
Specialty eating disorder care in person from Renée D. Rienecke, PhD, FAED (Fellow of the Academy for Eating Disorders and a study therapist and supervisor on the NIMH trials that established Family-Based Treatment), with in-home intensives for eating disorders and OCD & anxiety across the Chicago area. For OCD, anxiety, trauma, and everything else we treat, our full team sees Illinois families by telehealth, including virtual intensives at each clinician's standard session rate.
One number reaches our whole team: call or text (954) 247-1114.
Specialty care in 40+ states
Through the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT), our psychologists can provide telehealth across 40+ participating states. The treatments do not change with the format: FBT, CBT-E, ERP, and exposure-based CBT, delivered over secure video with the same fidelity we hold to in person. That includes virtual intensives (several sessions across a week, or an extended session in a single day), billed at each clinician's standard session rate.
Specialty care is scarce: many families have no eating disorder, OCD, or anxiety specialist within reasonable driving distance. Telehealth is how the right treatment reaches you anyway.
