Eating Disorders
Kristen See
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
I view eating disorders as a response to deep, unresolved concerns such as childhood trauma and/or attachment trauma. They also tend to co-occur with neurodivergence. I primarily support folks who are navigating binge eating disorder and bulimia. In session I will support you through skills work in addition to processing the traumatic events or loss of control that has lead you to become hyper-vigilant about what you eat or what you look like. I provide patient, compassionate care and am happy to offer personal insight from my own experience with ED recovery.

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.
