Clarissa has worked in the addiction and mental health fields for the past 12 years and enjoys a reputation as being a skillful clinician yet “down-to-earth” with common-sense solutions to problems that occur when clients are struggling with food addiction recovery issues. Clarissa founded Reinvent Your Bliss Point in 2018 where she works with individuals based on a holistic approach to healing and maintaining recovery.
She has a passion for empowering and supporting individuals, coupled with her commitment to education and best practice, provides clients with a strong, supportive foundation to assist in navigating challenging times for them and loved ones. Her empathetic regard for each individual’s unique challenges and strengths fuels her commitment to helping people on their path to healing from food and the behavioural and emotional health issues that are attached to it. She hopes to create real change in the awareness of the disease of Food Addiction & launched the podcast Food Junkies: Recovery from Food Addiction with Dr. Vera Tarman and Molly Painschab this year.
Clarissa is currently enrolled in Bitten Jonsson's Holistic Addiction Medicine Course. She is on the Executive Committe of the Board of the Food Addiction Institute.
