About the practice
Signe Darpinian offers talk therapy and does not prescribe. Her listed specialties include the mental health side of midlife and menopause, along with body image, binge eating and chronic dieting, and she works through a weight-inclusive, non-diet lens. Sessions draw on DBT and ACT with homework between visits. She says she connects clients with psychiatrists, primary care physicians or dietitians when treatment calls for it, and keeps in contact with them. She has written a book on menopause, body image and emotional well-being at midlife, and she has presented on weight-inclusive menopause care alongside a physician. Care is by video for people in California, and she offers a short consultation call when she has room in her caseload.
