Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Clearview, ON.

I focus supporting those working with disordered eating which includes restrictive and compulsive eating and irregular or inflexible eating patterns. Eating disorders are an extreme form of disordered eating and are diagnosed. As a psychotherapist, I am unable to provide a diagnosis; however, I do use a team-based approach. We work together to build a care team that you trust and that will support you on this journey. If this leads to an assessment and diagnosis for an eating disorder that may become part of the journey. My approach includes walking alongside you as you learn skills, building safety, self-compassion, and trust, and connect to the value of a support system.

Eating disorders such as bulimia, anorexia, binge eating, and compulsive eating as well preoccupation with weight and shape are quite common in our culture and can be devastating and complex.

Whether through individual, family or group therapy, counsellors can assist us in changing our perceptions and behaviours and develop healthy self-esteem, communication, coping skills and emotional well being. (If we could have done it on our own... we would have by now.)

I am a Psychotherapist and Addictions Counsellor who has struggled through an Eating Disorder and now my passion is to give back and help others. I understand that having been there myself the feelings of shame, guilt and despair. I have first-hand experience and through my experience along the way I created a way through. I want to help as many people as I can with what I have been able to accomplish myself and share it with others so they no longer have to suffer. I understand that everyone’s journey is unique and no two journeys are alike. I have the patience, compassion, understanding and empathy it takes for you to feel safe that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

When clients are facing an eating disorder, they are facing a condition which affects their health, their identity, and ultimately, their future. When treating an eating disorder then, it is vitally important to support the whole person and not just their eating habits. Part of this support involves stabilization techniques aimed at preventing relapses and spirals, while also helping clients regard themselves in a more honest, loving, and compassionate way. We cherish the support we are able to offer clients facing an eating disorder, and we love seeing people overcome by such challenges ultimately become overcomers themselves.

I use a cognitive behavioural therapy approach to address disordered eating patterns. I work with clients to help them identify the thought patterns and behaviours that lead to disordered eating patterns. I encourage clients to monitor the habits that they have developed over time and once these habits have been identified we work together to challenge and change them.

I offer compassionate, evidence-based support for those struggling with eating disorders, focusing on healing both mind and body. Using approaches like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, I help clients develop a healthier relationship with food, their bodies, and themselves. Together, we’ll address underlying emotional triggers, challenge harmful beliefs, and build coping skills to manage urges and anxiety. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can reclaim balance, self-compassion, and a sense of control over your life and recovery journey.

Working with individuals who suffer from disordered eating often benefit from a family approach. The most meaningful therapy will always be the model that makes sense to the individual and is alignment with their values, needs and goals. Approaches which enable the therapist and client to partner together to create meaningful change tend to maximize therapeutic outcomes.

In my experience, self acceptance and self esteem lie at the core of almost every eating condition, even when anxiety feels like the primary motivation for your behavior. Having said that, I never make assumptions about why you do what you do and what is motivating the relationship you have with food. I work hard in our relationship to understand what it feels like to be you so that we can both learn what it will take to change your eating habits for the better and encourage natural and healthy associations with both food and your body.

My work with eating disorders is based on non-dieting, non-restricting, client-centered and Feminist philosophy. I believe eating disorders are influenced by many factors, including our ability to establish meaningful relationships with ourselves and others. Food restriction, dieting and/or over exercising is not a way to solve any problems, including problems with food and/or weight. Re-establishing relationship with ourselves and establishing meaningful connections with others is.

Working with me offers a compassionate and curious space to explore your relationship with food and body image. Using a biopsychosocial approach, we look at the emotional, physical, and societal factors that influence your experience with eating and self-worth. Together, we aim to understand what your eating patterns are trying to communicate and begin healing the parts of you that rely on them for comfort or control. Through self-compassion and reconnection, you can learn to trust your body, care for yourself, and open up to the possibility of recovery and lasting healing

Eating disorders are connected to the value that society puts on appearance. In North American and European cultures, the ideal is to be thin. Being overweight is obvious to the world and viewed by society as a shameful condition. This is a demoralizing position to be in. Eating disorders are predominantly an issue for women, who naturally go through changes in their weight. But this is also an issue for men, who can hurt just as deeply if they feel unworthy of love by virtue of their appearance. My approach is to help people feel good from the inside out. I recognize that weight issues can be the source of shame, bullying and marginalization. These are often the areas we work on in therapy.

Eating disorders are often connected to deeper emotional pain, shame, or struggles with self-worth. In my work, I offer a compassionate and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their relationship with food, body, and emotions safely. Using a trauma-informed, Gestalt and somatic approach, we gently increase awareness of triggers, body sensations, and inner dialogue. I help clients build emotional regulation skills, self-compassion, and healthier coping strategies. We also explore relational patterns that may support disordered eating. Through this process, clients often develop a more stable sense of self and a more balanced relationship with their body and food.
