Dr. Breese Annable is a clinical psychologist and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, Approved Consultant. She specializes in eating disorders and disordered eating in high-achieving adult women, particularly those navigating midlife transitions. Her work focuses on the behavioral and psychological patterns that often drive chronic dieting, weight cycling, rigid food rules, and body dissatisfaction — including perfectionism, over-functioning, people-pleasing, and the pressure to maintain a high-performer identity.
She helps clients understand the function of their eating behaviors, reduce the cycles of control and shame, and develop a more regulated, sustainable relationship with food and their bodies. For many midlife women, hormonal changes intensify old patterns; Dr. Annable integrates this context into treatment to support both psychological wellbeing and physical health.
Her approach is evidence-based, relational, and grounded in the realities of high-performance women’s lives. She works with adults struggling with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, compulsive exercise, chronic dieting, and body image concerns, with an emphasis on clients who have spent years “holding it all together” while privately feeling stuck in exhausting patterns with food.
