How therapy works
If you have struggle with your relationship with food or your body, you are not alone. This can be a really complex issue. We consistently receive messages about our bodies through media, policies, and even within relationships. It can be very challenging to navigate these messages and keep them from changing your relationship with food. Often eating disorders and disordered eating is not solely about food, but also a way you have learned to cope with stressors or negative feelings about self.
My role in therapy around eating disorders or disordered eating is to work on creating new coping patterns, processing the grief, trauma or negative beliefs about self that encourage the behavior, and support you as you build the relationship you desire with your body and food.
