Eating Disorders
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.

Catherine Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LMHC
For many high-achieving women, struggles with food and body image can become tied to perfectionism, control, and the pressure to always be “doing better.” What may start as trying to be healthy or disciplined can slowly turn into constant mental noise around food, guilt after eating, or rigid rules that are exhausting to maintain.
I work with women navigating eating disorders and disordered eating using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Together, we explore the patterns that keep these cycles going while building practical tools to reduce shame, manage difficult emotions, and develop a more stable relationship with food and your body.
My approach is supportive, honest, and empowering—creating a space where you don’t have to hide the struggle and can begin moving toward balance rather than constant self-criticism.

Leslie Worley
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
Eating disorder can come in all sorts of shapes and sizes - metaphorically and literally. Whether it's restriction, binging, purging, hating your body, being afraid of food, it's all an unhealthy relationship with food, with your body and stems from a core belief that we will find together. In my work, you'll learn to urge surf whatever impulse is driving the eating disorder and discover your value that is greater than the urge to act on the eating disorder.
