A non-judgmental place to explore and transform your relationship with food and body

Many of our clients dream of living a life where they feel at peace with their bodies and food, and free from the endless cycle of dieting, restriction, and guilt. 

They might be living with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, poor body image or body dysmorphia.

Our therapists provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can safely explore these challenges. 

Using proven therapy techniques, we help you shift negative thought patterns, challenge disordered behaviors, and reconnect with your body’s natural cues.

Together, we’ll work on small, achievable goals to help you find joy in eating again, reduce anxiety, and feel more balanced and present in your daily life.

What can I expect from therapy?

During your eating disorder therapy sessions, you can expect approximately one-hour appointments that are thorough and focused, providing ample time to understand and address your needs without feeling rushed.

Our sessions are focused on helping you work through challenges so you can:

  • Experience freedom around food and your body so you don’t always have to feel so controlled by your choices. 
  • Have days where your mood isn’t dictated by what you eat or how you look. 
  • Develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with your body.
  • Reduce obsessive thoughts around food, exercise, and appearance.

By focusing on these areas, we help you rebuild your relationship with food, exercise and your body.

Eating disorder therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy designed to help individuals struggling with disordered eating patterns, body image issues, and diagnosed eating disorders like Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder, and ARFID. The therapy focuses on helping you improve your relationship with food and your body, reduce harmful behaviors, and create healthier thought patterns around eating and exercise. By working with a trained therapist, you’ll develop coping strategies and tools to move away from obsessive thoughts and behaviors and toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Eating disorder therapy may be right for you if you find yourself constantly preoccupied with thoughts around food, body image, or exercise, and it is affecting your quality of life. If you experience restrictive eating, binge eating, purging, or obsessive thoughts about food or your body, this therapy can help. Even if you haven’t been formally diagnosed, therapy can support you in finding peace with food and your body and help you break free from disordered eating patterns.

During a typical session, you’ll have a safe, non-judgmental space to discuss your current challenges with food, body image, and emotions. Your therapist will work with you to set goals, challenge harmful thoughts or behaviors, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. We use evidence-based techniques to help you feel more in control of your relationship with food and your body. Your therapist may also assign homework or resources to support your progress between sessions.

The length of therapy varies depending on your specific needs and goals. Some individuals may see significant progress after a few months, while others may require longer-term support to address deeper patterns. Typically, therapy is an ongoing process, and sessions may be weekly or bi-weekly, with progress continually monitored and adjusted as needed.
