Find An Eating Disorder Therapist in Prince Edward, ON.

Eating Disorders are mental health challenges that manifest in the body, and in our relationships with food. Usually eating disorders start with an honest desire to be healthier, and lead into obsessions, compulsions and behaviour that end up dominating our lives. My belief is that eating disorders are an attempt to cope with stress, trauma and other difficulties and that they should be met with curiosity and compassion.

While I do not offer support for eating disorders, at Psychotherapy Collective, we have other therapists who are well positioned to support you. 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 you may be engaging in disordered eating.

Disordered eating, body image struggles, or obsessive food patterns are often rooted in emotional distress, trauma, or issues with self-worth. Whether you face restriction, bingeing, purging, or constant body dissatisfaction, I provide a space to gently explore these challenges. Together, we can work toward building self-acceptance, emotional awareness, and a more peaceful relationship with your body.

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.

Eating disorder can overshadow your life, stealing the joy and self-respect. I have worked with many who struggled with eating disorders and disordered eating and yes, it is possible to fight it and move beyond it. In the therapy with me you become aware of your strengths, your limitations and areas that need strengthening. You discover you are not alone and let the guilt and shame sweep away and become stronger. You learn how to create healthier boundaries, recognize triggers and become emotionally and mentally stronger.
