Eating disorders are complex conditions that affect both physical and emotional health. I offer a compassionate and non-judgmental space where we can explore the underlying issues contributing to disordered eating behaviours. Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and a strengths-based approach, we’ll work together to develop healthier relationships with food and body image. My goal is to support you in finding balance, improving self-esteem, and achieving lasting recovery, helping you reclaim a healthier and more fulfilling life.
Do you eat restrictively because you’re terrified of eating too much? Do you binge eat and then find ways to compensate for doing so? Maybe you routinely overeat or find yourself constantly ‘grazing’ and gaining weight. The common factors with all eating disorders are the feelings that accompany them. Let us help you and know that your struggle does not have to continue and help is possible
My work focuses upon an holistic view of the individual and their history. This means our focus is less upon individual 'symptoms' and alleviation of these, and more upon what the 'symptom' might be communicating about imbalance in the individual. This leads on to an examination as to what needs to change at the level of body, mind, emotion and spirit.
Psychologist, Masters in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D.
There are a broad range of eating disorders and not everyone struggling with a fear of weight gain has exactly either anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa. No matter what your personal pathway has been or how intese your fears, we can help you find a way forward. We try to let our clients set their own pace of change. Therapy needs to be so much more than eating more and restoring lost weight. It is usually all about discovering your biggest emotional and personal needs and then taking the time to really meet those needs (in healthy ways). We can offer individual therapy and family-based therapy depending on the age of the client, their needs and their preferences. Arrange a call to discuss which approach would work for you or your family member.
