Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
Eating disorders can develop when a child lacks validation, nurture and support and when they've experienced bullying, neglect or abuse. Counselling will look to validate and build self-worth, to encourage clients to find an accountability partner, to get medical care, and possibly a treatment program specializing in eating disorders.

Dr. Claire Vines, Psy.D., Psychologist / Licensed /Psychotherapy / Psychoanalytic/
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
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.

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.
