Meet Rachel Allen, LMSW-cc, our newest addition to the New Roots team!

Rachel takes a collaborative, compassionate approach to therapy, tailoring treatment to each client’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals. She integrates evidence-based approaches to help clients better understand their relationship with food, movement, and their bodies while supporting lasting recovery.

Rachel believes that healing happens in connection with oneself and with others. When it feels helpful, she includes family members, partners, or other chosen support people in the recovery process through psychoeducation and facilitated conversations that strengthen understanding and support.

She is also passionate about helping clients explore the ways societal messages about bodies, food, and health can shape their thoughts and behaviors. Through a trauma-informed, HAES®-aligned, and culturally responsive lens, Rachel supports clients in separating their own values from the pressures of diet and wellness culture, empowering them to build a more trusting relationship with themselves and their bodies.

Rachel is accepting new clients! Reach out to schedule:

This is one of my child’s school lunches. It looks about the same every single day. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

It’s important to honor the need for predictability with food, regardless of a persons age. The “right” kind of bread, creamy peanut butter, crust-less, each compartment has its purpose. The figurines make the lunch more playful.

Our society puts too much emphasis on variety. This lunch offers sources of all macronutrients and can be eaten every day without question. Eating enough, daily, is what matters most. I invite you to let go of the “shoulds” and just do what works for YOU.

We are excited to welcome Lindsay Susi, LCSW to our New Roots Team! Lindsay is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and families as they navigate the complexities of living with an eating disorder. Lindsay is deeply committed to an anti-diet approach and the principles of Health at Every Size (HAES). She believes everyone, regardless of body type, deserves respect, healing, and support in recovery. Her work focuses on promoting food neutrality and challenging the harmful thought patterns that can keep individuals feeling stuck, while guiding them toward building a healthier, more compassionate relationship with food and their bodies.

Lindsay specializes in the treatment of eating disorders, employing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as the primary therapeutic modality, complemented by other evidence-based approaches including mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and interpersonal therapy. Her practice is centered on supporting the individual and their family/supports, utilizing solution-focused strategies to address disordered eating patterns, behavioral and motivational challenges, communication difficulties, and interpersonal relationship issues. Lindsay is guided by the belief that individuals are doing the best they can with the resources and information available to them. This helps shape her commitment to providing comprehensive education on eating disorders in a supportive therapeutic environment. Lindsay works collaboratively with clients to facilitate meaningful change, fostering self-awareness and empowerment. Her approach emphasizes compassion, safety, and clear boundaries, allowing individuals to move beyond disordered eating patterns with confidence. Lindsay is committed to providing inclusive support for individuals of all genders in their journey toward recovery.

Meet Marissa Campbell, MS, RD, LD, our newest addition to the New Roots team!

As a Registered Dietitian, I am focused on helping individuals move toward a life free of food and body obsession. I feel passionately about getting to know you, meeting you where you are at and working as your teammate in your recovery from disordered eating or an eating disorder. My own relationship with food was most challenging in middle school. I was sucked in by comparison and food and exercise started to feel complicated in ways it hadn’t before. With some support, I was able to work through my challenges.

With all the noise in our culture around food, nutrition, and movement, I want to help you shift from harmful external influences to powerful internal influences to help you re-establish trust in your body.

I value the opportunity to work with and empower you in breaking up with diet culture and finding a life of food freedom and body peace. I look forward to the chance to create a safe space to explore and understand your individual goals and reassure you that you do not have to do this on your own. Using evidence-based information, I am here to help debunk myths, answer questions, and support you in what serves you as an individual in living your best life!

Marissa is accepting new clients and is in-network with most major insurance companies! Reach out to schedule:
