Sandra Wartski, Psy.D., CEDS is a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist who has been working with Silber Psychological Services in Raleigh, NC since 1993. Over the past 30 years, Dr. Wartski has been conducting individual, family and group therapy, with special interests in mood disorders, anxiety, eating disorders, relationship issues and crisis intervention. One of her favorite parts of being a therapist is the opportunity to build relationships allowing room for positive growth and change, and finding multimodal methods of motivating for and assisting with change is a particular passion for her. Dr. Wartski also enjoys providing presentations and writing articles on a variety of mental health topics for both community groups and other professionals. The area of metaphors is a particular interest, and this has led to providing regular articles for her "Mindful Metaphor" blog at Psychology Today (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mindful-metaphors).
