Samantha Bathija obtained her Master’s in Psychology with Mental Health Counseling focus from Westfield State College. She has passionately treated eating disorders and addictions for over a decade, and is thrilled to be part of a research-supported treatment model that is individualized and warm. She is proactive in the inclusion of current evidence-based interventions, and equally dedicated to ensuring there are fun and spirited activities to renew a sense of passion for life. Samantha believes eating disorders should be treated holistically because, at their core, they are a disorder that targets every aspect of a persons’ well-being. She has unwavering optimism after seeing the miraculous results Center for Discovery’s model brings clients and their families. Samantha is quite certain she experiences true magic daily.
