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.

Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
At Nightingale Counselling, we take a non-pathologizing approach to disordered eating, recognizing that the problem is not a fixed part of who someone is, but an experience that happens in a person's life and one that is treatable with the right support. We understand that disordered eating is rooted in a complex interweaving of biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors, and our therapists are trained to explore all three dimensions rather than focusing narrowly on behaviour or weight alone. As one of the only group psychotherapy practices in Vancouver with direct connections to dieticians and other allied health professionals, we are uniquely positioned to offer the multidisciplinary, collaborative care that meaningful and lasting recovery from disordered eating requires.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: Trauma-informed, emotion-focused and body-image-informed support.
I explore emotional distress, self-esteem, body image, perfectionism, and coping patterns that may contribute to difficulties around eating. Where an eating disorder requires specialized nutritional, medical, or multidisciplinary treatment, I support coordinated care and appropriate referral.
