Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Eating disorders are complex mental health conditions that involve abnormal and disturbed eating behaviors. Common types of eating disorders include Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge Eating Disorder. These disorders can cause serious physical and psychological consequences, including malnutrition, organ damage, and an increased risk of depression and anxiety. Eating disorders often stem from a combination of biological, psychological, and environmental factors and can be influenced by cultural and societal pressures.
Treatment for eating disorders usually involves a combination of psychotherapy and medical intervention. Psychotherapy can help individuals understand and manage the underlying emotions and thoughts that contribute to their eating disorder and support them in developing healthy coping mechanisms. It is important to seek help from a licensed mental health professional if you or a loved one is struggling with an eating disorder, as early intervention is crucial for a successful recovery.

Clients with eating disorders see me for counselling, to help them cope with what is often a traumatic past. In treatment, I help clients to better navigate the challenges of healthy eating with the underlying painful feelings associated with trauma memories.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
I'm familiar with a variety of theories about eating disorders that we might draw from to understand what's happening for you. One person's emotional and social experience of an eating disorder might be vastly different from another's, so my aim will be to understand your unique experience. I know that eating disorders can feel unending for some—it might be hard to imagine life without it. Sometimes we need to understand what the eating disorder does for you in order to find other ways to fulfill those needs. There can be an incredible amount of shame and misunderstanding because fatphobia, sexism, racism, and other forms of discrimination so often shape what we hear about eating disorders. It might be important to unpack what you've been taught to feel about food, eating, or your body. My aim is to make space to explore the eating disorder on your own terms and from a compassionate lens to the underlying pain you're in.
