MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder, are complex mental health conditions characterized by unhealthy relationships with food, body image, and weight. Traditional treatments often involve psychotherapy, nutritional counseling, and medical management. However, hypnotherapy has emerged as a complementary therapeutic approach that may help individuals address the underlying psychological factors contributing to disordered eating.

Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC (CCTP, CYMHS, C-DBT, C-PD)
To be honest about my experience with EDs, I can't say I'm very confident working with an eating disorder as a primary diagnosis, and I haven't had any specialized training, although I have considered it. However, to the extent that bulimia and anorexia co-occur with borderline personality and trauma (my two primary areas of practice) I have actually seen some success, particularly with bulimic BPD clients. (Which may also make use of my DBT skills.) With appropriate safety planning and oversight I would consider treating these disorders on a case-by-case basis, particularly if your needs line up with the disorders I regularly treat.
10 Years Experience
Online in Chesapeake, VA
Chesapeake is the second-largest city in Virginia by land area — a mostly suburban and semi-rural community spread across the southern Hampton Roads region — with a therapy landscape shaped by its proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and the broader military community, as well as the particular stresses of a sprawling suburb where long commutes and limited walkable community can contribute to social isolation. The city's large African American population and its place within Hampton Roads' racially complex social fabric create demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Chesapeake Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside the broader Hampton Roads healthcare ecosystem. Many Chesapeake residents access therapy through the wider Norfolk-Virginia Beach metro, given the city's geographic extent and integration with the regional mental health network.
