The Becoming Practice
Counsellor/Therapist, M Couns; BSocSc (Psychology)
I support clients struggling with eating disorders by creating a safe space to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors around food and body image. Together, we work on building self-compassion, healthier coping strategies, and a more balanced, nourishing relationship with yourself.

Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
Eating disorders are quite deep and are one of the hardest issues to work with in psychological terms. so many problems may cause the symptoms but with many years of experience we have many tools in the bag to help. It can be simply a cry for help or a way the mind used to develop a coping mechanism against controlling parent(s) or to arm oneself from systematic abuse or fears. So many causes but many solutions on the table for us to use.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my experience in nursing and mental health along with listening to many, many other peoples experiences of eating disorders and body dysmorphia, I feel I have a good understanding of eating disorders issues and how they can impact the person experiencing them, as well as how they can affect those around them. I can support you to find connection and empowerment within your body to restore balance, happiness and inner peace.
I can do this by using various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
