Need Help?

 

If you feel like you’re not living your life to the fullest, then psychotherapy can be very helpful. If you’ve tried to improve things on your own and haven’t been able to, then treatment makes sense. If your eating/body image disorder is affecting your health, your home life, and/or your professional life, then you are suffering and although there is no magic cure, there is help out there.

 

Often I've heard from clients that they didn't seek help earlier because they didn't fit into the classic eating disorders that they'd heard and read about. If you're not bulimic or anorexic but obsess about food, how much you weigh, how much you ate yesterday, how much you hate your (stomach, thighs, butt...) body, you are not living your life to the fullest and you can benefit greatly from treatment. This negative self- focus distracts you from enjoying your life.

 

If you are interested in individual treatment, feel free to contact me for more information.

  • I don't really need help, I can do this on my own.

  • My problems aren't as bad as other people's.

  • I've tried therapy before and it didn't help me.

  • I'm so bad off, no one can help me.

  • I'm too lazy.

  • I'm afraid to confront my feelings, problems, eating...
