It is rarely about food! People suffering from eating disorders or disturbed eating habits tend to feel judged by themselves or others, the need to be perfect, depressed, anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or a sense of lack of control. As a psychologist who obtained an undergraduate degree in Nutritional Science from McGill University, I focus on addressing the biological, psychological, and social aspects of eating problems in sessions. I use cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to help clients effectively regulate their feelings, understand the role of thoughts played in eating problems, and learn strategies to cultivate relationships.
