Dealing with an eating disorder can be some of the most confounding work a person will ever encounter. Clients who can feel supported and accepted can often begin to feel the freedom to let go of the illusion of control that is frequently the unconscious goal beneath the presenting problem (the eating disorder). Patience is required of both the therapist, the client, and the client's support system. Persons suffering from an eating disorder can regain the joy, liveliness, and freedom that the disorder is robbing them of through a process of compassionate counseling.

Eating Disorders can be a tough thing to break once one heads down that path. Having a support system is vital to overcoming it. Many times there is more happening than just the eating disorder, some other cause that led to it. We must also process and work through that otherwise a cycle may form of recovering and slipping back. Accountability is also very important and honesty if one is willing to work through this.

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.
