Eating Disorder Recovery
Create sustainable and thriving relationships with your body, food, and movement.
Come home to your unique recovered self
Eating Disorder Therapy
In a culture that promotes diet culture, dissatisfaction with self, disconnection from emotions and intuition, and ties morality to food and bodies, many people find their relationships with body, food, movement, and self to be challenging at some point during their lives.
With over a decade of experience in eating disorder research, advocacy, and treatment, I support my clients to create sustainable and thriving eating disorder recovery. I truly believe that with tools and support, recovery is possible!
There is no one “right” way to do recovery. There is only your way.
Whether you have a diagnosed eating disorder or are wondering if your relationship with food is trending toward unhealthy; you just stepped down from a treatment program or it’s your first time seeking therapy; you’ve been in recovery for years or you’re not even sure what recovery means, I meet you where you are at with curiosity and care.
My passion is to co-creatively explore what you want your recovery to look like and feel like - what a healthful relationship with your body, food, and movement means for you - and then to move toward that goal at your pace.
Ready to create your own unique recovery?
Set-up a free 30 minute consultation to see if working together feels like a good fit for where you’re at on your journey right now.
Every recovery is unique; recovery is not linear.
You may want support if you experience …
negative body image
disordered eating
an eating disorder diagnosis
over exercise or compulsive movement
struggling to have a positive or neutral relationship with food or body
having trouble navigating a culture hyper focused on body and food
If you find yourself fighting with yourself about your body or food, I can support you to shift from these unhelpful patterns into living fully from your essence in recovery.
You don’t have to do it alone. Recovery is possible!
Recovery is more than talking about food and body. It may also be …
exploring how to move away from the eating disorder into aliveness and authenticity
addressing the root causes and maintaining factors of the eating disorder
reconnecting with and creating space for your essential self
processing emotions and experiences suppressed by the eating disorder/disordered eating patterns
developing and strengthening skills to connect to self, body, and others rather than use disordered eating and body patterns to cope and survive
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to recovery.
The only way to create true sustainable recovery is to find what works for your life, which may change over time. Otherwise you’re just trading the eating disorder or diet culture rules for “recovery rules,” both of which are external expectations that may or may not fit for you.
I find the process of creating our own unique recovery beautiful and exciting. Over the years I’ve collected tons of strategies, tools, structures, and ideas that can work depending on a person’s particular circumstances, needs, values, and personality. I see building recovery as a process of trying on these recovery concepts as experiments, and then gathering information each time about what works and what doesn’t work. We can choose what we keep and what we throw out as we experiment again and again. When we see everything that happens as valuable information, the entire process can become almost fun!
What if recovery were fun? Maybe just some of the time?
Whether it’s fun or not, it’s yours. Ultimately you get to decide what you want your recovery – and your life – to look like, to feel like, to be. Eating disorders and diet culture take away our power, recovery is a process of reclaiming our power one step at a time!
My goal as a therapist and guide is to support people in creating their own unique recovery. It’s one of my favorite things because it’s different each time.
You are unique and your recovery is unique, however you are not meant to do it alone.
I deeply believe that recovery works when it is:
Created by you
Supported by others
Curious if I might be the right fit for your recovery support team?
A consultation call is a great place to discuss what you’re experiencing and needing right now, to have your questions answered, and to explore if working together feels like the right fit. No pressure. No obligation. Pure exploration, curiosity, and care.
