I worked at a residential treatment center which specialized in eating disorders for 5 years. I believe that eating disorders are desperate attempts to cope with life and previous traumas. I help women specifically learn to build a healthy relationship with food, love their bodies, and learn how to use other coping skills that do not involve binging, purging, laxatives, and/or starvation. Through therapy, you'll heal past traumas and heal the relationship you have with your mind, body, and spirit.

Eating disorders are increasingly common in our society. These disorders range from binge-eating, bulimia, anorexia, or a combination. Unfortunately, eating disorders negatively impact your psychological and physical well-being ED’s involve a disproportionate attention to weight or food, which overcomes balanced functioning. Eating disorders are serious because of the grave side effects that can emerge such as heart a digestive issues, in addition to the highly uncomfortable mind-frame involved in maintaining a disorder. Expert services are effective at disarming ED's and providing a more comfortable and healthy way of living. Overcoming a disorder is very possible.

I use a bio-psycho-social approach when working with an individual with an eating disorder including anorexia, bulimia, or body dysmorphic disorder. Do you know the cues or triggers of your eating difficulties? The thoughts related to and feelings behind your eating or non-eating patterns? What is the function of your eating disorder? Do you have a realistic body and self image? Do you have a history of depression or other mood related difficulties? These are some of the questions, we will examine and have you answer in therapy. Eating disorders may require the involvement of other professionals like a nutritionist for example.

A healthy body image is crucial to healthy development. How we look is important. do you worry what people think ? do you feel judged? are you turning to food or exercise to manage stress? Is looking good to others excessively important to you? so you secret eat? Do you restrict what your eating? if you have any of these symptoms you may have issues with eating. I work with women who struggle with any stress around food, eating and exercise.

Those who suffer from eating disorders tend to have underlying control issues. The one thing that they have control over is what they allow in their bodies and how they eliminate much of what they eat. Many times it is related to a poor self concept and a distorted picture of self. Learning to change the view from the inside out and the outside in can greatly impact this very serious and deadly issue.

Eating Disorders cross the span of gender, culture and socio-economic class. Whether you struggle with anorexia, bulmia, over exercising or body image distortions, I can help facilitate a more peaceful way to live. ED have many different sources but often stem from a lack of self-esteem, perfectionism or as a means to self-soothe. Studies show that cognitive behavorial therapy combined with insight oriented therapy often offer the most satisfying means to overcome an Eating Disorder. I use both approaches, I also work closely with several residential programs, when there is a need for more comprehensive care. My clients find long lasting growth and satisfication in their therapy with me.

Almost everyone worries about his or her weight at least occasionally in our society that continues to reward thinness. People who suffer with eating disorders take such concerns to extremes. They develop abnormal eating habits that threaten their well being and even their lives. There are three major types of eating disorders. Anorexia Nervosa – Individuals with anorexia nervosa have a distorted body image that causes them to see themselves as overweight even when they are extremely underweight. They generally refuse to eat or eat very little, exercise compulsively, and refuse to eat in front of others. They lose large amounts of weight and may starve to death.

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.
