Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Oyama, BC.

I use Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques in my practice, and as such, see much greater results than those who use traditional psychotherapy techniques with eating disorders. My techniques focus you on being accountable for your behaviour and to own it through tracking, data and self-management. YOU own the problem and the solution to this, with my help.

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.

I help people overcome their addiction to food. We all eat for emotional reasons, but if your emotional eating is ruining your health or your well-being I can help you learn skills to take back control. Through a health and wellness approach, with a strong nutritional component, we will work together to help you create a healthy relationship to food.

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.

With many issues in life, if you are struggling with something you can simply ignore it. Eating disorders and disordered eating are different, because food is a constant, and a biological need. Jadon Ward can help you explore your relationship with food and body image. Ultimately the goal of therapy is for you to be comfortable with yourself and your lifestyle, and that looks different for everyone.

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.

I do a complete assessment before deciding on an approach. An eating disorder is a symptom of root causes. As in an iceberg model, the symptom is just the tip of the iceberg. Through cognitive/behavioral therapy and the use of EMDR, I target the life experiences that produce the negative behaviours of eating disorders. This is much the same as working with an addiction to a substance.
