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 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.

Dealing with an eating disorder is difficult, made all the more difficult if the people you love do not know how to support you through this time. Working with someone trained in treating eating disorders, you will feel understood in a way that you might not have thought possible. There is no reason why you should be going through this alone. Reach out to get the support that you need.
