Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Decatur, TX.

Recovery from an eating disorder can be a long journey. After all, you can't just abstain like you can with some other disorders. My approach is first to help you solidify your idea city in Christ, helping you with that part of you who is so critical and likes to remind you of how you're missing the mark. I want to encourage you to be conscious of your feelings of shame and all the negative emotions your may feel so we can begin to relate them to the One who can set you free from them.

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.
