If your relationship with food and your body takes up more space in your head than you'd ever say out loud, the rules, the numbers, the guilt, the mental math that never quite stops, you're not alone. And you're not doing this to yourself on purpose.
Disordered eating isn't about vanity or willpower, and it isn't a lack of discipline. More often it's something that started as a way to cope, a way to feel some control or safety when things felt like too much. There's no judgment here about what you eat, what you weigh, or how long this has been going on. Just support that meets you with compassion instead of shame.
Eating Disorders & Body Image Support
-
I work with a range of struggles around food and body, including:
Anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating, & OSFED
Restricting, purging, or compensating
Chronic dieting and preoccupation with food or weight
Body image distress and harsh self-criticism
The anxiety, perfectionism, or trauma that often sits underneath
Whether you have a formal diagnosis or just know that food and your body feel like a battle, you're welcome here.

Often, yes, and I think it's a strength. Eating disorders affect both mind and body, so when it's helpful, I'll coordinate with a dietitian or physician so you have a full team around you rather than just one person. You don't have to organize all of that yourself. I can help.

That's completely understandable, and you're not the only one who feels that way. So much of this thrives in secrecy, so even saying it out loud to one safe person can be the first loosening of its grip. You can bring it here messy, uncertain, and half-formed. You don't need the right words. You just need to start.

We start gently, at a pace that feels safe. Rather than just trying to change the behaviors on the surface, we work to understand what they've been protecting you from, and slowly build a relationship with food and your body that takes up less room and gives you more of your life back. My approach is trauma-informed, so we make space for whatever is underneath, not just the eating itself.
You deserve support that meets you with compassion instead of shame, and a relationship with food and your body that takes up less room in your life. When you're ready, I'd love to help.
