Eating Disorders
You can live a life free from your eating disorder.
Eating disorders interfere with the ability to live your life fully in the present. They strip away connections with yourself, friends, and family. They drain you of your ability to experience emotion. They consume the mind with intrusive thoughts around health, body size, shape and weight, leading to harmful behaviors with food and body. Eating disorders are rooted in concerns related to self-esteem, shame, self-worth, guilt, fear, inadequacy, sense of belonging, and trauma.
They are our way of coping with life circumstances when it all feels too much.
There is another way…
Full recovery from an eating disorder is possible. While living with an eating disorder may leave you feeling trapped and isolated, please know that you are not alone. I am here to offer support and guidance so you can learn to find peace with food, practice body acceptance, and experience the freedom of recovery. The journey to recovery can feel so daunting and overwhelming. In individual therapy, we can take small steps together to better understand your relationship with food and your body. From there, we can begin to gently explore those painful feelings that lie beneath and learn how your behaviors are holding you back. As we peel back the layers, you can reconnect with your inherent strength and value while developing skills to live more fully in the present. It can feel so scary to let go of behaviors and so worth it when you’re on the other side. Life opens up. I am here to help you find the freedom of recovery that you deserve.
