Dr. Margo L. Hurewitz PSYD.
Psychologist
253 WITHERSPOON ST PRINCETON NJ, 08540About
I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in treating children, adolescents and adults who are struggling with anorexia or bulimia as well as other psychiatric conditions such as depression and anxiety. I gained my clinical experience and expertise by working as a primary therapist on the Eating Disorders Unit at the University Medical Center at Princeton. I am committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment in order to help my patients identify the underlying issues contributing to their eating disorder as well as develop healthy coping skills.
I utilize an integrative treatment approach involving both psychodynamic as well as cognitive behavioral therapy. I also incorporate mindfulness and distress tolerance skills into my practice. In addition, I provide individual, marital and family therapy.
I also provide consultations and evaluations for patients seeking bariatric surgery and can provide follow up care as needed.
