Eating Disorder Therapy

It can be frustrating, difficult, and often isolating, to know your relationship with food needs to change but not knowing how to or where to begin. It's understandable that you might feel stuck and â€‹â€‹I recognise the courage it can take to speak to someone about this.

​

It is very possible to form a healthy relationship with your body, exercise and food regardless of how difficult that might seem now.

​​​​

Our sessions are a place for you to be seen, heard & understood through the challenges that you are dealing with just now. I will hold a safe space for you, listen without judgement and support you as we find ways forward that make sense to you.  â€‹

​

If you would like to speak to me about individual eating disorder therapy for yourself of a loved one then ​ please contact me to arrange a 30 minute phone or zoom call. ​​​​

*PLEASE NOTE:   I WORK WITH PEOPLE 18 YEARS +

I specialism in supporting people whose relationship with food and / or exercise is impacting the quality of their life. 

​​

Disordered eating, eating disorders and exercise compulsion appear in many shapes and forms.

​​

This might include:

  • Negative feelings about how you look or what you eat

  • Thoughts dominated by food, weight or body shape

  • Restricting amounts of food, certain foods or food groups

  • Having safe foods that feel easier to stick to

  • Eating in secret

  • Fluctuating between eating lots and eating little

  • Having rules about food and / or exercise

  • Exercising more than you mean to and feeling unable to take rest time

  • Exercising to justify what you eat or have eaten

  • Vomitting or using laxatives to try to get rid of calories

  • Worrying that you have lost control, or will do, over how much you eat​

My Approach

I have a tool kit of many different modalities that include behavioural, humanistic, creative, cognitive, person-centred and somatic therapies.

​

I draw on what best suits your way of communicating, processing and your needs at the time. It's not your role to fit my tools, but rather it's for me to use my skills and experience in accordance with who you are & what you bring to the space.

​

We are all different and helping you to be fully you is part of what I'm here for.

​​

You can read more about my approach, experience and qualifications in the About Me page.

How Sessions Work

Therapy sessions are for 60 minutes and usually start off either weekly or fortnightly in order to have some momentum. These are usually scheduled at the same set time, but some flexibility is available. We will then decide together during the course of therapy when to reduce or finish sessions. 

​

I work on an open-ended basis - there is no commitment to a set number of sessions. I do suggest however making a 'soft' commitment to at least 6 sessions. This gives us both time to understand the issues that have brought you to counselling, to form our collaborative relationship and to allow change to happen.  

Fees

Pre-session zoom call (30 mins): No charge​

1 hour sessions: £65

​

Our initial zoom call is a chance for us to meet so you can see if I'm the right person to support you. It also gives us a starting point if we do decide to work together and means our first session isn't taken up with some initial admin.  

 

Please feel free to email me to ask more or to book an initial call.
