Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
Eating disorders are quite deep and are one of the hardest issues to work with in psychological terms. so many problems may cause the symptoms but with many years of experience we have many tools in the bag to help. It can be simply a cry for help or a way the mind used to develop a coping mechanism against controlling parent(s) or to arm oneself from systematic abuse or fears. So many causes but many solutions on the table for us to use.

Counsellor/Therapist, BA MA Relational Psychotherapist/ Birkbeck College - Psychodynamic Counsellor
The generalised term “eating disorder” can cover many forms of unusual, or atypical eating habits and also includes disordered, or distorted body image (body dysmorphia) and even, possibly, addiction to exercise. Eating disorders can effect both men and women and it has been estimated to affect anything up to 5% of all people at some point in their lives, with a relatively greater propensity amongst older adolescent boys and younger men. Other eating disorders may also include behaviours such as the compulsion to exercise excessively, or a negative, or distorted body image, as well as obsessive thoughts, habits and behaviours surrounding various aspects of food.
Relational psychotherapy can generate the opportunity with eating disorders to examine and explore any possibly deep-rooted emotional explanations that may have contributed to issues around food, exercise and body image. With eating disorders, relational psychotherapy creates the opportunity to possibly identify any such sensitive areas and instigate a process to overcome troubling, obsessive or destructive behaviours in a supportively safe space. My private practice has successfully provided a guided and structured approach – comprising both cognitive interventions and practical strategies – to support clients as they initialise a process to create a healthier relationship for themselves with both food and their bodies.

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.

Gordon Wax BA HONS MBACP
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist
I help people understand food from the oral and anal stage of sychological development. We learn about behaviour around eating and ways to respect and enjoy food in healthier way. Often it's not food that's a problem but a side effect.

Jason Fletcher Hypnotherapy and Coaching
Hypnotherapist, FNCIP SQHP
Eating disorder work explores the emotional and relational patterns that often sit beneath behaviours around food, control, and self-worth. I support people in developing greater awareness, emotional regulation, and compassion towards themselves. The focus is on building stability and a healthier relationship with needs and emotions.

Milton Keynes is England's largest planned new town — granted city status in 2022 — and one of its youngest in terms of average population age, with a rapidly growing and diverse resident base — including large South Asian, East African, and Eastern European communities — creating broad demand for multilingual and culturally affirming therapists. The city's identity as a place people move to rather than grow up in means therapists frequently address social isolation, community disconnection, and the adjustment challenges of starting over in a new place. Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community that has grown alongside the city's expanding population. Milton Keynes's car-dependent geography and dispersed layout contribute to a sense of isolation that shapes its distinctive therapy culture.
