In this episode, Ashley is joined by her dear friend & licensed mental health counselor, Terina Lopez. Terina specializes in treating eating disorders and helping others develop self-awareness and a positive relationship with food. She is also the president of the Miami chapter of IAEDP, The International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals Foundation.
