Eating Disorders
Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
Many eating disorders co-occur with trauma, depression and enmeshment with abusive systems or individuals, so we offer support for recovering from these complex experiences as part of addiction recovery. Addiction and restriction recovery includes deeply compassionate work with IFS, Polyvagal and Addiction Circles mapping to develop awareness and work through both original trauma based adaptations and compounded adaptive behavior. Utilizing this novel approach, recovery can be a path to deeper self care, compassion and meaning and can reveal more ease and connection with others. From a functional health perspective, common dietary trends, challenging factory farming practices, and environmental toxins can also play a role in setting on and deepening and ED or disordered eating. So sometimes addressing a nutritional deficiency or chemical toxin may be important to do in a way that is sensitive to the psychology of living with an ED. Over time many clients may move into a next phase of becoming more broad in their dietary choices and/or lovingly becoming friends with their body, goals can vary. If the ED is a compulsion, we can also apply remote TCM, CranioSacral and Functional or Integrative support if asked for. Please feel free to ask if you have questions.

Eating Disorders
Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
Our emotional relationship with food is a powerful path of self-development if we find ourselves walking upon it. "The path of food" is a different way of viewing struggles with emotional eating, a way that is hard work, but extraordinarily illuminating of some of the deepest parts of ourselves. Struggles with food and eating are not accidents, nor are they pathology, but the yearning in the depth of ourselves to find freedom and ease in life. Accompaniment by another who knows this path can be extraordinarily helpful and comforting as you walk the way of food.

Sarah Jane Thomas
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
A lot of people I work with have spent years following diets or eating plans that were praised as "healthy" by everyone around them, even though it was harming their relationship with food and their body. We will look at what is underneath those patterns together, with curiosity instead of shame. You do not need to have a specific diagnosis or a tidy label for what you are going through. Our goal is to help you feel less trapped by food rules and more connected to what your body is actually asking for.

Fresno sits at the center of California's San Joaquin Valley and serves a largely agricultural economy, with therapists frequently addressing the mental health effects of seasonal work instability, rural poverty, and the physical and psychological demands of farmworker life. The city has large Hispanic, Hmong, and Southeast Asian communities — many with refugee backgrounds — creating demand for multilingual and culturally informed therapists who work with intergenerational trauma, resettlement stress, and identity. Community Regional Medical Center and UCSF Fresno provide institutional mental health resources, while the California State University Fresno psychology program feeds practitioners into the local community. Fresno's relatively limited therapy density compared to coastal metros makes telehealth an important access route for residents across the Central Valley.
