Eating Disorders
Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
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. Eating disorders are a coping strategy, and I help support clients get curious and heal from the underlying pain they are trying to protect themselves from.

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.

Melissa Kaylee De Pace
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), CNP, M.A
Eating disorders are complex, which is why I take an integrative approach that looks beyond food and eating behaviours alone. With a background in psychotherapy, nutrition, and holistic wellness, I consider the relationship between food, body image, self-worth, perfectionism, anxiety, emotional regulation, physical well-being, and the nervous system. Together, we explore not only what is happening around food, but what those patterns may be protecting you from, helping you cope with, or communicating about what you need.
Our work combines deeper psychological exploration with practical support, helping you challenge rigid beliefs, understand emotional and relational patterns, reconnect with your body, and build greater trust in yourself. The goal isn’t another set of rules to follow perfectly, it’s to help food and body image take up less space, while creating more room for flexibility, connection, self-worth, and a life that feels like your own.

The Okanagan is British Columbia's lake-and-vineyard interior region, anchored by Kelowna and including Vernon, Penticton, and a string of lakeside communities that mix agriculture, wine tourism, and tech growth in one of Canada's most popular retirement destinations. The region's mental health picture includes seasonal tourism economy stress, wildfire and smoke-season anxiety after repeated severe fire years, and the isolation some newcomers and retirees feel after relocating. Therapy access centres on Kelowna's growing practitioner community, with Interior Health providing public services and telehealth extending reach across the valley's smaller communities.
