Eating Disorders
Shannon Mick
Counselor/Therapist, NCC, LPC
Eating disorders can feel like a constant battle—with food, your body, and yourself—especially as an endurance athlete. Whether it’s restriction, bingeing, purging, orthorexia tied to “fueling” for training, or the cycle of guilt, shame, and compensation that follows, these struggles often rob the joy from running and daily life. The pressure to look a certain way, perform at a high level, or control one area when everything else feels uncertain can make recovery feel overwhelming.
In our work together, we create a safe, non-judgmental space to understand the roots of your relationship with food and your body. Using CBT to challenge disordered thoughts, DBT skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and ACT to reconnect with your values beyond performance or appearance, we focus on practical, sustainable steps that honor your life as a runner.
Many clients experience meaningful progress such as:
Rebuilding trust with hunger and fullness cues (using tools like the Hunger Scale).
Reducing binge-restrict cycles and food guilt.
Developing a healthier, more compassionate relationship with their body and fuel.
Improving energy, training consistency, and overall well-being.
Moving from rules and fear toward freedom and intuitive eating.
I regularly share free downloadable resources—including the Hunger Scale tool for tuning into satiety and hunger cues—that we can personalize and use between sessions.
You deserve to nourish your body without fear or shame—the same strong body that carries you through long miles and tough efforts. Recovery is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s work together so you can finish stronger, both on the trails and in your relationship with food and yourself.

Eating Disorders
Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perfectionism and a lack of self-acceptance lie at the core of many eating disorders. I teach people how to unconditionally accept themselves instead of trying to obtain the perfect body. I also teach people how to alleviate stress and emotional problems which may very well give rise to eating problems and disorders.
