Eating Disorders

Eating disorders are typically a symptom of something much bigger we have struggled with in our lives. Living with an eating disorder typically looks like constantly maintaining control in a world where you constantly feel out of control. You may filter "food noise" every moment of the day, whether that's counting down to the next time you eat or guilting yourself for the last thing you ate. Healing looks like control in healthy ways and freedom from the noise.

I have over 3yrs experience working with body image issues, eating disorders and lessened self-confidence. I have worked in all levels of care on these issues.

Food is one of the earliest ways we humans experience nurturance and interaction with a caring adult. food takes on many meanings about relationships, needs, control, and the value of self. The development of an eating disorder signals a problem in one or several of these areas; it arises as an attempt to solve this problem, by drawing attention to the problem, by pulling the family together to address symptoms of the eating disorder; or expressing/repressing feelings related to current problem.

I am a certified intuitive eating counselor and take a weight neutral, non diet, and fat positive approach to care. Behaviors with food are so often what is on the surface that we can see but the majority of disordered eating behaviors stem from something much deeper and as a way to cope. I take a collaborative approach to care and work closely with dietitians and other medical providers on the complexities an nuances of recovery work.

Eating disorders are my passion and speciality. ED clients are the strongest people I know. They learn to see their strength through separating ED's negative power into finding ones true self away from the ED. I have an incredible success rate of hundreds of recovered clients. I love my ED clients and it's amazing to see them grow into themselves with empowerment and most often complete recovery.

We are highly specialized in the treatment of eating disorders, and we use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Enhanced for Eating Disorders (CBT-E) as well as Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) interventions in our approach to care. We operate from an All Foods Fit, Health at Every Size (HAES), Weight-Neutral, and Intuitive Eating Framework. We treat the most severe eating disorders, all the way to people wanting to recover from chronic dieting. Contact us today to begin your recovery with Resolve.

I am dedicated to helping individuals develop a healthier relationship with their bodies and foster a positive self-image. With a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I work with clients to explore the underlying emotional, psychological, and social factors that contribute to disordered eating patterns and negative body perceptions. Together, we focus on building self-esteem, promoting body acceptance, and developing mindful eating practices to support long-term recovery.

I have expertise in disordered eating, body image and self esteem, particularly binge eating, body dysmorphia, restricting and over-exercise. Our work is a mix of understanding and modifying behaviors while also exploring the personal, family, social and cultural influences that contributed to their development.

I aim to help individuals address the underlying emotional, cognitive, and behavioral factors contributing to eating disorders, through the use of CBT and DBT tactics, promoting long-term recovery and healthier habits.

I follow the Health at Every Size (HAES) model and utilize intuitive eating tools to help people reconnect with their bodies and take care of themselves in whatever way is most life giving for them.

Many of us feel disconnected from our bodies and frustrated with our relationship to food. You may be trapped in a cycle of restrictive and binge eating that leaves you feeling out of control and mistrusting of your body's intuition. I use a Health at Every Size (HAES) approach to create a safe space to help people of all sizes heal from disordered eating and negative body image.

Eating disorders are often misunderstood and can be difficult to recognize, especially for those unfamiliar with them. Through my professional experience, I have worked with individuals facing a wide range of disordered eating challenges, including extreme restriction, binge eating, and ARFID. In supporting clients with these symptoms, we work together to uncover the root causes of these negative behaviors and develop practical skills and coping strategies.

An eating disorder is a mental disorder defined by abnormal eating behaviors that adversely affect a person's physical or mental health. Common types include binge eating disorder, where a person eats a large amount in a short period of time; anorexia nervosa, where the person has an intense fear of gaining weight and restricts food or overexercises to manage this fear, & bulimia nervosa, where individuals eat a large quantity (binging) then try to rid themselves of the food (purging).

Are you wishing you had more peace with food, your body, yourself, and those people who are important in your life? We will work together collaboratively to help you discover who you are at your core, heal what hurts, and engage genuinely with your true self, your relationships and your life. Deep conversation, deep listening, and deep connection for your healing and transformation. Together we can work on lasting change.

I work collaboratively with other members of the ED treatment team to help support and empower clients in their recovery. Specializing in bulimia nervosa and athletes w/ eating disorders.

Eating Disorders and disordered eating can often be misunderstood or overlooked due to commonly held misconceptions. Whether it is messaging from society, media, family, friends, or other areas of your life, eating disorders can be dismissed which creates a great barrier to receiving treatment. No matter what stage of life you are in or what your relationship with food and your body looks like, your eating disorder is valid and you are worthy of recovery.

As a certified eating disorder specialist and certified intuitive eating counselor, I am equipped to help individuals navigate body image and food struggles.

Disordered Eating? I've been there and done it all. I've been to the dark side of both under and over eating and learned so much in my 15 years of recovery. My training and experience has taught me that intuitive eating can be an eventual reality for everyone. I take a Health at Every Size approach to recovery and wholeheartedly believe in your ability to find freedom with food. Note that health at every size and intuitive eating does not mean chaos and endless weight gain (I promise!)

I've been actively working with eating disorders since 2018. I have experience helping people with symptoms of food restriction, bulimia, and binge eating. I work from a Health At Every Size framework so that no matter where your ED is coming from, we'll start by meeting you where you are today. Whether you're brand new to the possibility of having an ED, or you need a hand in continuing the next step in your recovery, I'm here to help.
