Pamela Mekuz
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Q)
Struggling with an eating disorder can be exhausting, affecting not only your relationship with food and your body, but also your emotions, relationships, and overall well-being. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to recovery. Each person's experiences, challenges, and needs are unique, and what helps one person may not be right for another. Drawing on my background in eating disorder recovery coaching, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with food, better understand the thoughts and emotions underlying your struggles, and work toward a healthier, more peaceful relationship with yourself and your body. Recovery is a personal journey, and together we can explore what that might look like for you.

Eating disorders are marked by obsession with food or body shape. It is most common in women. Several eating disorders include bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, or anorexia nervosa. Cognitive behavioral therapy or family based therapy will help you exchange unhealthy eating habits for healthy ones, help you monitor your eating habits and mood, and help you develop healthy coping mechanisms to stressful situations.

Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
Emotional Eating & Weight Loss Do you want to lose weight, tone up, and increase your muscle mass, along with learning how to manage your emotional eating? Not knowing how to cope with our feelings we often do something that feels good like having a delicious snack. Food provides a source of soothing, comforting, nurturing, and distraction from whatever problem exists. So, it serves as an escape . As a counsellor I can help you deal with these issues as opposed to avoiding them.
As we become flooded with neurotransmitters, due to eating down our feelings, a sense of euphoria results and craving for more is stimulated, along with our need to continue to maintain those unhealthy habits. In addition to teaching clients the HALT method for overcoming emotional eating, as a counsellor who is well versed in fitness, and healthy eating, I would be pleased to guide and support you in developing your own personal plan to achieve your weight loss and fitness goals.

Anna Skomorovskaia (Sky)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
As a psychotherapist, I chose to work with eating disorders because I recognize it has the profound impact on an individual's mental health and well-being. Trauma can cause a range of emotional and psychological symptoms, including eating disorders. Individuals who have experienced trauma may develop an unhealthy relationship with food as a way of coping with their emotions or regaining a sense of control. I believe that by addressing the underlying trauma, individuals can begin to heal and develop a more positive relationship with their body and food. Through therapy, I work collaboratively with my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings about their eating disorder and develop new coping strategies to manage their symptoms. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space where my clients can feel heard and understood, and I am dedicated to helping them on their path towards healing and recovery.

Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
It’s easy to slip into a painful and confusing relationship with food, especially when eating starts to feel less like a choice and more like a way to cope. If you find yourself turning to food when you’re stressed, overwhelmed, lonely, or emotionally drained—and then feeling out of control around eating—you’re not alone. Binge eating and emotional eating can leave you feeling disconnected from your body, frustrated with yourself, and unsure why willpower never seems to be enough.
Binge eating often involves eating large amounts of food in a short period of time, accompanied by a strong sense of loss of control. You might feel unable to stop, even when you’re uncomfortably full, followed by guilt, shame, or self-criticism afterward. Emotional eating may look like using food to soothe difficult feelings or numb emotional discomfort, even when you’re not physically hungry. Many people experience both, often moving between periods of trying to “get back on track” and moments when eating feels chaotic or unmanageable.
These patterns usually develop over time. What may begin as dieting, food restriction, or an attempt to eat “better” can quietly increase cravings and preoccupation with food. The more rigid the rules become, the more likely it is that they eventually break—leading to episodes of overeating or binging, followed by renewed attempts to regain control. This cycle can feel exhausting and demoralizing, reinforcing the belief that something is “wrong” with you, when in reality your body and nervous system are responding to deprivation, stress, and emotional overwhelm.
Binge eating and emotional eating are not about lack of discipline or failure. They are often linked to chronic stress, negative body image, unmet emotional needs, and a history of restriction or dieting. Over time, the constant mental focus on food, weight, and eating can crowd out enjoyment, self-trust, and a sense of ease in daily life.
At Laird Counselling Services, we have experience supporting individuals who feel stuck in cycles of binge eating and emotional eating. Therapy can help you understand what’s driving these patterns, rebuild trust with your body, and develop more compassionate and sustainable ways to cope with emotions and stress—without food feeling like the only option.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, ashamed, or unsure how to break free from this cycle, support is available. You don’t have to navigate this alone. We invite you to reach out to learn more about how counselling can help you move toward a calmer, more balanced relationship with food.

If you’re yearning to shift your relationship with food and feel more in tune and loving towards your body, I’m here to support you. Having gone through my own healing journey, I know how vulnerable it can feel to reach out. I approach body image and disordered eating from a holistic perspective– combining therapeutic techniques that involve the mind, body and soul.

Alicia Panchal
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I have worked in eating disorders for over 5 years, with experience working specifically in an eating disorders program, supporting children, adolescents, and adults who have been affected by disordered eating.
Your eating disorder is here for a reason. It's up to us to figure out what that is, and how to meet your needs in a way that allows you to nourish your body, and cope with emotions and stressors that have been too difficult to manage.
Having an eating disorder can be such an isolating and exhausting thing to experience. That voice inside your head that's trying to control your relationship with food, movement, and your body gets louder and louder each day, and the emotional distress is just so strong. My work in supporting those with eating disorders focuses first and foremost, on normalizing your relationship with food, and eliminating any associated behaviours (purging, over exercising, weighing, bingeing, etc). My goal is ensuring that your body gets the nourishment it needs, so that we can do the work of talking back to that eating disorder voice, get you to a place where you can have foods you enjoy free of anxiety and guilt, and create a safe and accepting relationship with your body.

An eating disorder can include Anorexia, which is about restricting one's food intake, or self starvation due to fear of gaining weight and self image. Bulimia is eating a large amount of food in a short period of time, often followed by vomiting often using laxatives in order to eliminate the food intake due to fear of getting overweight.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
Depending on where you are in your recovery process, Somatic Experiencing can be a great supplement to ED recovery. If you've moved through the worst of it, you have a care team, you're eating well, and you're feeling stable- but you still have a hard time feeling at home in your body; you're still uncomfortable with feeling hunger/fullness signals or sometimes feeling ANYthing from your body, then Somatic Experiencing can be a great help.
Incrementally, step by step, we can start establishing a safe 'line of communication' between you and your body, so instead of feeling like a floating head, you can start feeling more of an integrated mind-body system.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Eating concerns are rarely just about food—they’re often about control, safety, emotion, and self-worth. Therapy supports recovery by addressing the underlying drivers, strengthening coping alternatives, and reducing shame and secrecy. When needed, we can collaborate with medical and nutrition supports so you’re not carrying this alone.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Disordered eating is often about far more than food. For many people, it can be deeply connected to ADHD, autism, trauma, sensory needs, emotional regulation, shame, control, or years of trying to cope in ways that made sense at the time.
My approach is compassionate, affirming, and focused on understanding what may be beneath the surface — not just the behaviors themselves. Together, we explore patterns around food, self-worth, nervous system needs, and coping while working to reduce shame, strengthen self-understanding, and build more supportive, sustainable ways forward.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Eating disorders affect both the mind and the body, often creating tension, disconnection, and a complicated relationship with food and self-image. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping individuals safely explore emotions, reconnect with bodily sensations, and develop a more compassionate, balanced, and grounded relationship with themselves and their bodies.

Disordered eating can be connected to control, anxiety, trauma, body image, shame, perfectionism, stress, or attempts to cope with overwhelming emotions. Therapy can help you understand the patterns behind food, body, and self-worth concerns while building healthier coping and self-compassion. I provide a non-shaming space to support healing and change.
