Are you often feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious? Are you struggling with relationship issues, low self-esteem, trauma, PTSD, grief, or stress? Have you realized you are relying on food to change how you're feeling? If so, food has become your crutch and it's no different than using alcohol or drugs to numb, distract, and avoid dealing with the real underlying issue. And just like any other crutch, addiction or distraction, food will not solve the underlying problem. I am here to help you uncover the underlying issue, heal the hurt, restore balanced eating and create a sense of well-being.
I have worked with disordered and emotional eaters for nearly two decades. This includes adults, and teens 17 years or older. My focus is on clients who struggle with difficult eating behaviors and the underlying issues. I use EMDR to treat trauma as a stand-alone issue or in conjunction with eating disorder treatment.
