My approach to eating disorder counselling focuses on helping clients build a healthy relationship with food and body image. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness techniques, I guide clients to address distorted thoughts and behaviours related to food. Clients benefit by gaining insight into the root causes of their eating disorder, challenging harmful patterns, and developing healthier coping mechanisms. The goal is to empower clients to achieve emotional healing and lasting behavioural change.

Many of your young people suffer from eating disorders. Research has shown that eating disorders are related to the same characteristics as addictions. This could be a result of all the different pressures people deal with on a daily. With a great deal of experience, knowledge and training in this field, I have been very successful in treating eating disorders, using proven Cognitive Behavior Therapy strategies. During the sessions key subjects leading to these issues are discussed and addressed. Goal setting, organizational schedules and personality types also can be explored.

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.

At Orchid Psychotherapy Clinic, we offer specialized therapy for individuals struggling with eating disorders and related issues. Some of the concerns you may seek help for include: emotional eating, anorexia and bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, compulsive eating body image difficulties, body dysmorphia, and compulsive exercising. We believe that anyone can recover from an eating disorder no matter how long they've struggled. We work alongside you at your pace to find strategies that benefit you; to normalize your eating and eliminate symptoms, and to help you identify issues that might be driving the eating disorder so that you maintain your recovery after therapy is over.

My approach to working with people who struggle with food issues, is looking at the issue as an expression of a need that can't (yet) be put into words. Because eating disorders can be quite harmful, a team approach is always recommended; a family doctor, perhaps a nutritionist and a therapist. Together we will look at your history of food and how food and body image was spoken about at home; there are often ties to early childhood here. Then, we'll find ways to help manage symptoms, which could look like finding other ways to express the need/feeling, instead of using restriction or bingeing. Eating disorders are quite isolating, and the hardest part can be admitting you need help.

Eating disorders often feel like a quest for control in a chaotic world. It is like a voice that distorts our relationship with our bodies and our selves. You will not be defined by this struggle. Your eating disorder is not something needing eradication, but a part of your story that deserves to be understood. We will honor your experience in a non-judgmental space. Together we will rewrite the narrative about food, body, and self-worth.

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.
