I work from a Health at Every Size (HAES) and humanist framework, observing individuals as a whole, and when it comes to the war against body discrimination and terrorism, I believe in working to enhance radical acceptance through promoting self-contentment, end weight discrimination by identifying the underlying and overlying systems of oppression, dismantling those systems, and working against the cultural obsession with diet culture, and the pursuit of thinness and perfection.

Brittany Statler, Intuitive Wellness Therapy Group
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Headline: From Survival to Sovereignty: Reclaiming Your Body and Your Life
The Cycle Ends Here
Eating disorders often start as a way to find safety or control, but eventually, they become the very thing that keeps you trapped. If you are tired of the mental gymnastics of food-tracking and the exhausting disconnect from your own body, there is another way. I specialize in helping individuals move beyond "just getting by" and into a state of true embodied recovery.
My Integrated Approach: Mind & Body
I don’t just treat your thoughts; I work with your whole self. By combining Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with Somatic (Body-Based) Approaches, we address recovery from two essential angles:
Mind (ACT): We work on psychological flexibility—learning how to let go of the "tug-of-war" with critical thoughts and rigid rules. Instead of fighting your emotions, we identify your core values and use them as a compass to take bold, life-affirming actions.
Body (Somatic): Eating disorders thrive on a disconnect from physical sensations. We use somatic tools to gently rebuild body trust. By learning to listen to your nervous system rather than your eating disorder or past messages so you can learn to safely connect to your body to reach true recovery.

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.
