Eating Disorders
Eating disorders can present themselves in many forms, from severe restriction (punishing exercise regimes, self-induced purging and other compensatory behaviours), to binge eating and feeling a total sense of loss of control over your eating. While my Masters and PhD focussed on the latter, I have much experience working with the former as well. I am passionate about the assessment and treatment of eating disorders, and have been excited to see my client's improvements along the course of therapy.
I provide a comprehensive assessment of the nature of your eating disorder (ED), including factors that contributed to the original development of your ED, to factors that are maintaining your ED in the present day. I then provide you with a treatment plan that will target the maintaining factors of your ED first, and then, if they are still contributing to your ED, we will address the original causes of your ED.
I understand that eating disorders come with many distressing emotions, particularly shame and embarrassment. I work compassionately with these emotions, while also providing support for you to help you move forward with your ED.
