Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Harrison Hot Springs, BC.

Utilising DBT and EFT approaches, I counsel my clients in learning healthy ways to manage emotions and build healthier relationships with food and other supportive people in their lives. Our relationships with our bodies, with our emotions and with food are intricate and need intentional mindful practice to keep in balance and maintain healthily.

While most eating disorder issues are treated by cognitive behavioral methodologies or specialized outpatient/inpatient programs, Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, PhD provide relief first and foremost for the brain of one suffering from an eating disorder----without giving them medication. We believe that the neural circuitries responsible for the compulsive behaviors with eating are not necessarily only a neurotransmitter issue but of overused neural networks that affect the harmonization, balance, and decisions of the whole brain.

If you’ve struggled with disordered eating, you are all too familiar with compulsive behavior, obsessive thoughts and a disconnect from the body. You may also have a constant need for control while at the same time feeling a frightening and exhausting loss of all control. Please know that none of this is your choice, but rather is a state of stress and overwhelm while you do your best to feel better. I have nothing but compassion for the distress that comes with food-related challenges, and you have my commitment to help you care for the difficult underlying emotions involved. Together, we will create a safe space to move towards healing and a safe relationship with food and the body.

In counselling, we will explore together the factors that drive your perceptions and behavior around food. Molly's goal is to help you develop a healthy sense of freedom in your relationship with food, rather than feeling controlled and distrustful within that dynamic. Molly might use CBT, EMDR, and Enneagram theory to help you as you recover and grow in self-acceptance.

Eating disorder counseling provides a compassionate space to address the underlying emotional and psychological factors contributing to disordered eating. My approach focuses on building trust, exploring the root causes of behaviors, and fostering a healthier relationship with food and body image. Together, we’ll develop personalized strategies to challenge harmful patterns, manage triggers, and support your recovery journey. Clients benefit from greater self-acceptance, improved coping skills, and a renewed sense of balance and control in their lives.

I help clients overcome addictive relationships with food. Like all addictions, the behavior is the tip of the iceberg, used to cope with underlying thoughts and emotions. Through collaborative conversations, clients gain insight into underlying concerns, gaining coping skills to more effectively navigate these issues. I draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI), helping clients achieve a sense of freedom and control over their lives, leading to long-term change.

The client will explore what is happening at a deeper level when understanding their eating disorder and what drives this behavior. The disorder is only a symptom of something much deeper happening within the client's inner experience. With Cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy techniques this issue can be explored and solutions offered.

I am flexible in approach with Eating Disorders, starting with what has worked or is working with you already. I offer Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a new approach that will help you to target the thoughts and feelings that cause the problem behaviours in a whole new way. I will give you new skills for handling difficult thoughts and feelings that cause you to binge, purge, or over/under eat. I have formal training in the ACT model which is an evidence based treatment for EDs. Contact me to discuss further.
