Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in King City, ON.

Body image & eating disorders usually develop alongside powerful emotions such as shame, self-criticism, and a sense of disconnection from one’s body. In this work, I draw on CBT, ACT, DBT, IFS and other modalities to help people develop a more compassionate and sustainable relationship with themselves. In addition to food behaviours, we explore emotional patterns, internal pressures, and life experiences that may be contributing factors. Clients benefit from learning how to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings while reconnecting with personal values, self-respect, and a sense of balance.

With the fast pace and challenges of life, you do not have to face them alone. Sometimes you need a helping hand and a friendly ear to talk to. It's my passion to help people. I offer counselling and psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. I work with clients to improve their resiliency, and uncover their strengths using a client centered approach and different modalities to meet needs .

Eating disorders may be common, but they are dangerous if left untreated. They are complex emotional issues that can be influenced by our family environment, relationships, school, career, and by the media. Eating disorders binge eating, purging, using laxatives, over-exercising, feeling guilty about food, over-eating, and obsessing about weight. Our therapists have years of experience in helping people deal with eating disorders. We will develop a treatment plan for you that will empower you to take control and free yourself from the problems. Our aim is to develop tools and resources to not just change your way of thinking and eating but also promote healthier patterns and behavior.

Eating disorders are a complex mental health problem with many contributing factors. My approach focuses on understanding the context of the eating disorder development with each individual client, learning about triggers for related behaviours, and exploring and healing underlying issues. Clients will learn to cope without the eating disorder and will be able to minimize or eliminate unhealthy behaviours. In addition, clients will rediscover who they are away from the eating problem. Many clients have described feeling free or like they have "been lifted out of the fog" as they recover and are able to enjoy their life without the eating disorder thoughts and behaviours interfering.

Living with disordered eating or body dissatisfaction can feel isolating and exhausting. Therapy offers a caring, non-judgmental space to rebuild your relationship with food and your body. Together, we’ll explore the thoughts and feelings behind eating struggles and develop healthier habits rooted in self-compassion. Many clients find renewed balance, confidence, and freedom from cycles of restriction and guilt.

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.
