Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Pickering, ON.

Eating disorders are serious and complex mental health conditions — but with the right support, recovery is absolutely possible. At Durham Psychotherapy, our registered therapists provide compassionate, evidence-based treatment for clients struggling with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and disordered eating patterns. We understand that eating disorders are rarely about food alone — they are often rooted in anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, perfectionism, or a need for control. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and emotion-focused techniques, we help clients explore the underlying drivers of their relationship with food and their body, develop healthier coping strategies, and build a more stable and compassionate...(view profile to read more)

Eating disorders are not really about food. They involve complex emotional issues that have significant impact on ones physical, emotional and social health. If you are preoccupied with your weight, focused on body image, size, or shape, compelled to perform specific rituals around food, obsessive about food, or deem foods as “safe” or “unsafe” to eat or uncomfortable participating in social activities involving food (such as getting dinner with friends) you may be engaging in disordered eating. I offer free consultations to answer your questions and help you determine if therapy will be beneficial for you. I look forward to hearing from you.

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.

Eating disorders can have a profound impact on both physical and emotional health. I offer a compassionate and evidence-based approach to help you address and overcome these challenges. Using techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness, we work on understanding the underlying causes of your eating disorder, developing healthier eating habits, and improving body image. My goal is to support you in finding balance and building a positive relationship with food and your body. Contact me to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to start working towards recovery and well-being.
