Abe Clabby is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who specializes in treating relationship issues, workaholism, trauma, codependency, depression, anxiety, autism, and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Abe spent the last 6 years at the Love Is Respect hotline and the National Domestic Violence Hotline, where he has seen the best and the worst that family and relationships have to offer. He is the author of "Cool Off the Burnout: Feel Better at High-Pressure Jobs".
Abe completed his master's degree in Counseling at St. Edward's University, where he earned a 3.7 GPA and spent an extra semester taking courses in marriage and family therapy. In postgraduate training like the Gottman method, Abe found what some couples do that makes them thrive. There are things that help with a partner, but they also help with our parents, our jobs, and our friends. Abe uses motivational interviewing in a client-centered way, empowering people to change the narrative and find an existential purpose for what they do and using the tools of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to get around the obstacles where people feel stuck.
Abe works with a lot of good-hearted people. They're compassionate and want to do good in the world and to help people they love. Caring people can be taken for granted, taken advantage of, and even hurt and used. They can be left feeling empty, unfulfilled, and unloved. But with the right mindset, boundaries, and self-care, they can be respected, appreciated, and live a life that they're proud of. Abe helps people care for others and in turn, care for themselves. With therapy, people can troubleshoot their troubles in jobs and relationships. Everyone has more options than they realize.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Eating disorder therapy is a specialized approach aimed at assisting those who are grappling with a range of eating disorders. These disorders are significant mental health conditions characterized by irregular or unhealthy eating patterns and an intense focus on body weight and shape. Common conditions addressed in Eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID).
At Thriveworks, Eating disorders begins with a thorough assessment and personalized treatment plan. Central to eating disorder therapy is psychotherapy, often employing cognitive behavioral therapy and other specialized techniques to target negative thought patterns.
The signs of an eating disorder can include:
CBT’s remission rate, according to some research, is generally between 50-30% for those seeking assistance for eating disorder symptoms.
The recovery rate for those seeking assistance with eating disorders depends entirely on the individual’s involvement in sessions, the severity of their symptoms, and their willingness to change their eating habits and relationship with food.
Eating disorder therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of Eating disorders will vary from one person to the next, dependent on their specific needs. Your therapist can help to determine what might be most beneficial for you.
About 30 million people struggle with disordered eating habits while negative emotions about their body’s weight and size overwhelm them. While some people may think of anorexia and bulimia as a typical, picky phase that teens experience and then grow out of, this misunderstanding far underestimates the seriousness of these life-threatening disorders. Anorexia has earned the highest death rates of any psychiatric disorder, and both come with the increased risk of severe health problems.
While there are effective treatments available, only about 10 percent of bulimics and anorexics receive the interventions they need. Medical, nutrition, and mental health professionals can individualize treatment for each unique person’s needs. The first step to receiving treatment is usually understanding the disorder and seeking professional help.
Thriveworks Georgetown gets that reaching out for professional help takes courages, and we are ready to give holistic and personal care that address both the medical and psychological challenges of anorexia and bulimia.
Anorexia and bulimia might be the most well known of the many kinds of eating disorders. They are separate diagnoses and each have their own symptoms and signs.
Anorexia nervosa is most commonly known as anorexia and is diagnosed with the criteria that follows, according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5):
Bulimia nervosa is most commonly known as bulimia and is diagnosed with the criteria that follows, according to the DSM-5:
Even though they are separate disorders, bulimia and anorexia also share many similarities. Both men and women can be afflicted by them, and they often are accompanied by anxiety disorders or depression. People of all ages can develop an eating disorder, but it usually surfaces during during adolescence.
