Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Langley, BC.

Struggling with an eating disorder can feel exhausting. You don't need to do it alone Support can make a real difference. I offer a warm, confidential space where we can gently explore your relationship with food and what might be driving it. Together, we'll look at the emotional patterns, past experiences and coping straggles that may be keeping you stuck. As eating disorders are often rooted in emotional challenges, my approach is grounded in attachment and emotion-focused therapies. This helps us get to the root of urges to eat, builds a more supportive, connected relationship with yourself and moves you towards a more balance and peace with food.

While most eating disorder issues are treated by cognitive behavioral methodologies or specialized outpatient/inpatient programs, Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, PhD provide relief first and foremost for the brain of one suffering from an eating disorder----without giving them medication. We believe that the neural circuitries responsible for the compulsive behaviors with eating are not necessarily only a neurotransmitter issue but of overused neural networks that affect the harmonization, balance, and decisions of the whole brain.

Eating Disorders are single issues problems and as such should not be treated with a single minded approached to only address ones 'eating'. The whole person's experience, environment, and goals must be taken into consideration in order to create true lasting change. This is why I use Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) when supporting individuals with ED. Teaching tools to identify and support unique thoughts, emotions and behaviors - while building success on towards attainable goals that are important to the individual. You can take back control over your life.

It is my hope that individual therapy will benefit clients who may currently be participating in community-based support groups and group therapy, giving them the opportunity to explore in more depth the underlying issues related to their challenges with food. Clients will benefit from exploring relationship issues with significant people in their lives. They will learn to identify inner and situational triggers that may have resulted in harmful patterns and choices in the past. They will benefit from identifying negative and debilitating thought patterns, and will develop self-affirming beliefs to move them to greater confidence and self-acceptance.

When it comes to working with clients who are experiencing disordered eating, the first thing to understand is that rarely is it about food itself, and it can affect anyone from all genders, ages, classes, and abilities. I personally understand the amount of stress and anxiety that can arise around eating and body image and want to work with you to pinpoint what is triggering for you about eating. My goal is to help you create and maintain a healthy relationship with food, not a fearful one. By using open, supportive, and non-judgemental dialogue, we can break down the shame and stigma of eating disorders together.

Disordered eating often develops quietly, shaped by stress, trauma, perfectionism, body image concerns, or a need for control during overwhelming times. Renee provides a safe emotional space where clients can begin to untangle their relationship with food, body, and self-worth without shame or pressure. Renee’s approach is collaborative and respectful of each client’s pace. Whether someone is experiencing restrictive eating, bingeing, emotional eating, or persistent body dissatisfaction, the focus is on rebuilding trust with one’s body, strengthening emotional regulation, and fostering a more compassionate self-relationship.

Struggles with food, body image, or eating patterns can feel overwhelming and isolating. Eating disorders often develop as ways of coping with deeper emotional pain, stress, or feelings of control. In therapy we work together to understand what is driving these patterns and gently build healthier ways of relating to food, your body, and yourself. Over time, many clients begin to experience greater self-compassion, balance, and freedom from the thoughts and behaviours that once felt controlling.

I am sorry I do not offer this service but the system will not let me cross this off the list. I apologize to you, the client, for having you click on this only to find I DO NOT offer this service. I'm sure it is a clich in the theravive system that I am unable to correct. Best wishes for your continued search to find the right therapist for you! Fred West

If you’ve struggled with disordered eating, you are all too familiar with compulsive behavior, obsessive thoughts and a disconnect from the body. You may also have a constant need for control while at the same time feeling a frightening and exhausting loss of all control. Please know that none of this is your choice, but rather is a state of stress and overwhelm while you do your best to feel better. I have nothing but compassion for the distress that comes with food-related challenges, and you have my commitment to help you care for the difficult underlying emotions involved. Together, we will create a safe space to move towards healing and a safe relationship with food and the body.
