Eating Disorders
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.

Eating Disorders
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Eating disorders can feel all-consuming, impacting your relationship with food, your body, and how you experience yourself. You may find yourself caught in cycles of restriction, bingeing, or feeling out of control around food, often alongside shame, guilt, or a harsh inner critic. These patterns are often rooted in past experiences, serving as protective ways of coping—even if they no longer feel helpful.
In our work together, we’ll take a trauma-informed approach, exploring your relationship with food and your body with curiosity, compassion, and without judgment. Rather than focusing on control or quick fixes, we’ll gently work with the underlying experiences and nervous system patterns shaping these behaviours, moving at a pace that feels safe and supportive.
I draw from EMDR, IFS, ACT, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your needs and readiness. When appropriate, EMDR can help process underlying experiences contributing to disordered eating, creating space for new ways of relating to yourself. Together, we’ll build practical tools while supporting deeper healing and a more compassionate, sustainable relationship with food and your body.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Eating Disorders
Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
I am here to support you whether you have an eating disorder or you can see there is some unhelpful patterning going on with your relationship with food. I have worked a great deal with the whole spectrum and have seen real success for people through therapy. This includes processing of one's familial history and messaging around food and weight and the impact this has had, skills around managing difficult thoughts and emotions, addressing fears around weight gain/giving up control and getting clear around what is important to you and how your relationship with your food and body may be getting in the way.
