Eating Disorders & Body Image


Eating disorders are sneaky. Here we will work to identify your “ED Voice” so we can begin to separate you from the sabotage that “ED” brings to your life. (No shade to the human Eds of the world.)

How do we know if our relationship with our body and food is - “normal”?

There is no “normal” or “healthy” here- food is meant to be enjoyed and support us so we can live our life fully. When we can build intuitive relationships with food we hope to be able to accept our bodies and lean into living a life with our body knowing that bodies are not “right” or “wrong.” Out goals here will never be to lose weight or change your body.

Our relationship to food and our bodies are so interconnected. From the negative messages of food rules, to the unmanageable expectations of comparison culture- we are left with more judgement than appreciation. By maintaining a recovery-focus environment I hope to create space to rebuild your food and body relationships!

Here we adopt Health At Every Size and intuitive eating principles to support your journey with food, movement, and body relationships!

    Compensation Behaviors after Eating

Questions to ask yourself

  • Do you punish yourself after you eat?

  • Do you compensate with something after you eat? (exercise, laxatives, vomit)

  • Do you adopt food “rules”? (good vs bad foods; permissible foods)

  • Do you eat more than you want, to the point of discomfort?

  • Do you avoid eating in front of people, or ignore invitations to eat with others?

  • Do you hide foods?

  • Do you believe your size, shape, or a number is the way to determine your worth?
