While counselling clients with eating disorders, it is often discovered that the cause is from childhood and relationship challenges. While I suggest you have a doctor and nutritionist on your team, sessions with me can include a safe place for you to share thoughts and feelings and explore coping strategies. Topics such as body image, self-esteem, anxiety and anger, and depression can be explored in sessions to help you understand yourself and your eating disorder in your unique circumstances.

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.

Eating disorders are often connected to deeper emotional pain, shame, or struggles with self-worth. In my work, I offer a compassionate and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their relationship with food, body, and emotions safely. Using a trauma-informed, Gestalt and somatic approach, we gently increase awareness of triggers, body sensations, and inner dialogue. I help clients build emotional regulation skills, self-compassion, and healthier coping strategies. We also explore relational patterns that may support disordered eating. Through this process, clients often develop a more stable sense of self and a more balanced relationship with their body and food.

If you are reading this profile, you are probably concerned about yourself to the point that you want to seek help. You are likely to be "an emotional eater".

You are constantly looking for a sense of control over the struggles on your feeling and your weight etc... With over 12 years of clinical experiences, I humbly and wholeheartedly want to support you in this battle. There are evident-based and effective therapeutic approaches to address your struggles. I offer integrative approaches to meet your needs. Please don't hesitate to reach out and start to get the help you need at this moment.

Struggles with food, body image, and control often mask deeper emotional pain. Whether you’re navigating disordered eating patterns, chronic dieting, bingeing, or restriction, we offer a safe space where healing is possible. At Rooted in Resilience, we take a non-judgmental, body-affirming approach that focuses on understanding the emotional roots behind eating behaviours. You’ll gain tools to rebuild your relationship with food, process shame, and restore connection to your body—on your terms, in your time.

I am specialized in helping clients explore the root of their problems in order to develop new ways of coping and live healthy, fulfilling lives. Often our emotional concerns manifest externally in ways that may be initially useful for coping in the short term, but over time become chronic problematic behaviours, such as addictions or disordered eating. I use approaches such as mindfulness, interpersonal counselling (therapy through relationship), and CBT to explore the factors contributing to the underlying difficulties to promote healthy ways of managing difficult experiences, help clients gain a sense of control and improved self-esteem, and foster lasting growth and transformation.

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.
