Eating Disorders & Body Image
When food and the body become where everything else gets held.
Food and the body often become the quiet stage where harder things play out, self-worth, comparison, control, belonging. Disordered eating and body image distress aren't about vanity or willpower; they're usually an older story about being seen, judged, or accepted that keeps repeating itself.
This might sound familiar
- Eating comes with rules, rituals, or a running mental tally.
- You scan mirrors, photos, and reflections without meaning to.
- Control around food feels steadying, until it doesn't.
- You compare your body to others, then feel worse for doing it.
How we work together
We turn toward food and body with curiosity instead of critique, and never with a plan that demands you shrink. Relational and attachment-informed work helps us listen for where the story first took root, and Internal Family Systems-inspired practices meet the parts of you that have been trying to keep you safe through control or vigilance. As a Certified Nutritional Practitioner, I can also hold the nourishment piece gently alongside the emotional one. Slowly, your worth becomes something bigger than a number or a reflection.
Sessions
