Therapy for Eating Disorders

Living with an eating disorder can feel like a constant and exhausting battle. That voice in your head (the one that tells you that you are not good enough) can take over your thoughts, your energy, and your sense of self. It’s about more than the just the food and your body, eating disorders are deeply tied to emotions, relationships, and past experiences.

You don’t have to face this alone. Therapy can help.

Starting therapy for an eating disorder take immense courage and can make all the difference.

With a DBT-informed approach, we’ll focus on understanding your patterns, developing coping tools, building self-validation, and helping you reconnect with your body, your values, and your sense of self.

Step by step, we’ll work toward a life that feels more grounded, more peaceful and more like you.

What Therapy Can Offer:

  • Understand yourself in a deeper way—beyond food, body image, or self-worth struggles.

  • Explore the emotions and experiences driving patterns around eating and self-image.

  • Create a space where you don’t have to hide—where honesty, curiosity, and support are welcome.

  • Build coping tools that work for you, not just in the moment, but for the long haul.

  • Make meaningful changes in your current eating habits with non-judgmental accountability.

  • Gently shift the thoughts that keep pulling you back into old patterns.

  • Build a more complete treatment team to help support your recovery.

  • Move toward recovery one small, brave step at a time—you don’t have to do it alone.

Approach

Starting therapy for an eating disorder takes real courage. I commend you for taking this first step. I'd love to share a bit more about how I approach this work.

My approach to therapy is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and connection. I begin by focusing on understanding your story, validating your experiences, and exploring what life feels like for you right now. We’ll move at your pace, creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported.

I bring a Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed lens to everything I do. DBT acknowledges that two things seemingly opposite things can be true at the same time. People with eating disorders often want to find recovery AND are also terrified of what life would look like without their eating disorder. My role is to help you get clear on what truly aligns with your values and support you in building a life that feels worth recovering for.

Eating disorders are built on patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we can gently untangle the layers. We’ll take a non-judgmental look at what’s working, what’s not, and step by step, begin to shift what’s holding you back. Every choice is yours, and I’ll be by your side the whole way, offering practical tools, honest reflection, and steady support.

Whether you’re struggling with restriction, bingeing, purging, or an overwhelming inner critic, therapy can help you build a more peaceful, connected relationship with food, your body and yourself. We’ll work toward healing that’s not just about symptom relief, but about feeling more grounded, whole, and at home in your own body.

Healing from an eating disorder is possible—gently, step by step.
