Eating Disorders

Eating Disorder Support

Eating disorders show up in many different ways, often shaped by past experiences, emotional coping, relationships, and the nervous system. They are not about willpower or control—they are meaningful responses to things that once felt overwhelming or unsafe. Therapy offers a space to understand these patterns with care and without judgment.

Binge Eating

Binge eating often develops as a way to cope with emotional distress, stress, or unmet needs. It can feel confusing or shame-inducing, especially when it doesn’t align with how someone wants to relate to food or their body. Therapy focuses on understanding the emotional and nervous-system drivers behind binge cycles and creating more supportive, regulated ways of responding to those needs.

Restrictive Eating

Restrictive eating may begin as a way to feel safe, in control, or regulated, but over time it can become isolating and exhausting. Therapy helps explore what restriction has been protecting against, while gently rebuilding trust with the body, hunger cues, and internal signals—at a pace that feels respectful and safe.

Binge–Purge Patterns

Binge–purge cycles often reflect intense inner conflict, emotional overwhelm, and self-criticism. These patterns are not failures—they are signals that something deeper needs care and attention. Therapy focuses on interrupting the cycle by addressing emotional regulation, self-relationship, and the underlying meaning behind the behaviors.

Support for Individuals Using GLP-1 Medications

Some individuals using GLP-1 medications seek therapy not because they want to stop the medication, but because they’re noticing challenges they didn’t expect. These can include changes in appetite or body cues, emotional shifts, relationship stress, identity questions, or resurfacing eating-disorder patterns. Therapy provides a space to process these changes, support nervous-system regulation, and help integrate the medication into life in a way that feels grounded, intentional, and aligned with overall well-being.
