Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Chatsworth, ON.

Eating disorders are complex, and have a way of 'sneaking' into a person's life at vulnerable times, often disguised as something other than the devastating illnesses they actually are. If you are tired of making sacrifices to satisfy the eating disorder's 'rules', and want to have peace in your life - reach out. Together we can turn down the volume of the ED voice by supporting you to: fuel your body, challenge the thoughts that maintain the eating disorder, and learn new tools to manage distressing emotions. You CAN rediscover the inner you that has been overshadowed by the eating disorder, and re-engage with your life and relationships in ways that are meaningful to you again!

Eating disorders can threaten physical health as well as mental health and may be associated with other disorders such as trauma, self esteem and body dysmorphia. I work from a comprehensive/holistic approach to eating disorders and often use the potent tool of hypnosis when working with these issues. I provided a safe and supportive environment in which to address these sensitive issues.

Eating disorders benefit from the same or similar approach used for all addictive behaviours. One of the main therapeutic approaches I use is Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy. The relationship to food can be quite complex involving societal or cultural pressures, self-image, past traumas, addictive non-nutritious junk food, media images, social media pressures, bullying. Shame and guilt need to be addressed along with peer pressures. The most common eating disorders are: Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating, Pica, Rumination Disorder, Avoidance/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID), Orthorexia, Purging Disorder etc. The benefits of therapy are enhanced self-image, health and well-being.
