Eating disorders can profoundly impact every aspect of a person's life, including their physical health, emotional well-being, relationships, and sense of self. Whether you're grappling with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, body dysmorphia or other disordered eating patterns, reaching out for help can feel overwhelming. However, counselling can offer a safe and supportive space to begin your healing journey.
Counselling for eating disorders focuses on more than just changing behaviours around food. It’s about understanding the underlying emotions, thought patterns, and beliefs that contribute to these struggles. Through compassionate and non-judgmental support, counselling can:
Learn tools to manage stress, regulate emotions, and cope with challenges in ways that support your well-being and move away from using food or restriction to cope or control.
Work towards a place of self-acceptance, and peace with your body and with food.
Gain confidence in navigating life’s ups and downs without relying on disordered eating behaviours.
Together, if it feels appropriate, we can explore into the experiences, emotions, and triggers that may have contributed to the development of disordered eating.
I have experience working with people who struggle with disordered eating. My approach is integrative, blending evidence-based therapeutic techniques like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), other counselling approaches, and mindfulness practices.
As someone who has worked with clients navigating these challenges, I recognise that every individual’s journey is unique. I take the time to listen, understand, and tailor our sessions to meet your specific needs. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel seen, heard, and empowered to make meaningful changes.
Healing from disordered eating is a process, and it’s okay to take it one step at a time. Whether you’re seeking help for the first time or looking for continued support, counselling can be a transformative part of your recovery. Together we can work towards greater balance in your life and peace around food and eating.
If you’re ready to take that step, I invite you to reach out. Let’s explore how I can support you on this journey to healing.
