Eating Disorders
Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Eating disorders can feel completely overwhelming, like there's no way out. As your therapist I am here to be with you, reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore how your eating disorder feels for you, when it is at its worst, and help you to gain more of a sense of control over this. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

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.

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
Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching
Psychologist, MSc, MA, PGCE, GMBPsS
Anorexia or bulimia, or milder versions of these, are often a way to assert power for people who feel they are powerless. If you have no power in any other arena, at least you have some power over your own body. The behaviours can continue even long after the situation that underlies them is no longer present. I will help you to identify the experiences that underlie the problem and heal them, so that you can behave in a way consistent with your health and happiness.
28 Years Experience
Online in Bristol, ENG England
Bristol has a strong progressive and creative culture, and its therapy community reflects this — with high demand for therapists who specialize in LGBTQ+ identity, non-traditional relationship structures, eco-anxiety, and social-justice-informed approaches to mental health. The city has a significant student population across the University of Bristol and UWE Bristol, and therapists addressing academic pressure and young adult transitions are well represented. Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust provides public mental health services, with a private practice community concentrated in Clifton, Cotham, and Stokes Croft. Bristol's history of race-related civic tensions — including the 2020 removal of the Colston statue — has made racial identity and community healing ongoing themes in the city's therapy culture.
