Eating Disorders
Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
Eating disorders can develop when a child lacks validation, nurture and support and when they've experienced bullying, neglect or abuse. Counselling will look to validate and build self-worth, to encourage clients to find an accountability partner, to get medical care, and possibly a treatment program specializing in eating disorders.

Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future, I specialize in providing therapy for individuals struggling with eating disorders. Eating disorders can have a profound impact on both physical and mental health, but with the right support, recovery is possible.
In our sessions, I create a compassionate and non-judgmental space where you can explore the underlying factors contributing to your eating disorder. Together, we'll work to understand your relationship with food, address distorted beliefs and thoughts, and develop healthier coping mechanisms.
My approach to treating eating disorders is holistic, addressing not only the symptoms but also the underlying emotional and psychological factors. I use evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based Interventions to help you develop a healthier relationship with food and your body.
Recovery from an eating disorder is a journey, but you don't have to travel it alone. I'm here to provide you with the support, guidance, and tools you need to overcome your eating disorder and live a life free from its grip. If you're ready to take the first step towards recovery, I'm here to help you every step of the way.

Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
It’s easy to slip into a painful and confusing relationship with food, especially when eating starts to feel less like a choice and more like a way to cope. If you find yourself turning to food when you’re stressed, overwhelmed, lonely, or emotionally drained—and then feeling out of control around eating—you’re not alone. Binge eating and emotional eating can leave you feeling disconnected from your body, frustrated with yourself, and unsure why willpower never seems to be enough.
Binge eating often involves eating large amounts of food in a short period of time, accompanied by a strong sense of loss of control. You might feel unable to stop, even when you’re uncomfortably full, followed by guilt, shame, or self-criticism afterward. Emotional eating may look like using food to soothe difficult feelings or numb emotional discomfort, even when you’re not physically hungry. Many people experience both, often moving between periods of trying to “get back on track” and moments when eating feels chaotic or unmanageable.
These patterns usually develop over time. What may begin as dieting, food restriction, or an attempt to eat “better” can quietly increase cravings and preoccupation with food. The more rigid the rules become, the more likely it is that they eventually break—leading to episodes of overeating or binging, followed by renewed attempts to regain control. This cycle can feel exhausting and demoralizing, reinforcing the belief that something is “wrong” with you, when in reality your body and nervous system are responding to deprivation, stress, and emotional overwhelm.
Binge eating and emotional eating are not about lack of discipline or failure. They are often linked to chronic stress, negative body image, unmet emotional needs, and a history of restriction or dieting. Over time, the constant mental focus on food, weight, and eating can crowd out enjoyment, self-trust, and a sense of ease in daily life.
At Laird Counselling Services, we have experience supporting individuals who feel stuck in cycles of binge eating and emotional eating. Therapy can help you understand what’s driving these patterns, rebuild trust with your body, and develop more compassionate and sustainable ways to cope with emotions and stress—without food feeling like the only option.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, ashamed, or unsure how to break free from this cycle, support is available. You don’t have to navigate this alone. We invite you to reach out to learn more about how counselling can help you move toward a calmer, more balanced relationship with food.
