Your body is always talking to you, the question is, are you listening? 
Hunger isn’t just a growling stomach. Sometimes it shows up in more subtle ways that we mistake for “being tired” or “just stressed.” Here are som
Avoidance feels safe in the moment… but every time you avoid, you tell your brain “I can’t handle this.” Recovery is like jumping into cold water and delaying the jump doesn’t make the water any warmer. The longer y
In session, I hear a lot of fears around food, body, and exercise. But most of the time, it’s not about the thing itself, it’s about the meaning that’s been attached to it. Examples:

Overthinking often stems from our nervous system’s attempt to protect us. Especially when we’ve experienced unpredictability, trauma, or emotional invalidation in the past. When the body doesn’t feel safe, the mind goes into ove
Not every outfit is going to feel great…and that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with your body. Body neutrality is about noticing those uncomfortable moments without spiraling into self-criticism. You can feel off in your cl

Your eating disorder doesn’t tell the truth, it tells the story through the lens of fear, shame, and distortion. It speaks in absolutes. It thrives on anxiety. It edits out your strengths and magnifies your flaws. It whispers: “If you j

Did you know that being malnourished can make anxiety worse? ⠀ When your body isn’t getting enough nourishment, whether through restriction, skipping meals, or chronic underfueling your brain interprets it as a threat. ⠀ - Blood sugar drops - S
In session, I don’t just hear your words- I’m listening for the parts of you that are trying to feel safe, stay connected, or avoid pain. Your patterns aren’t flaws. Your defenses aren’t failures. They’re adaptations o
Folks with ADHD often have lower levels of dopamine, which is a key chemical involved in motivation, reward, and impulse control. So, when dopamine is low, eating can feel like a chore instead of a reward. 🍽️ Low or inconsistent dopamine makes ta
You can change the wallpaper, repaint the walls, even knock out a few windows…But if the foundation is cracked, the whole thing still feels unstable. As an eating disorder therapist, I see it all the time:
The belief that changing your body
Not all eating disorders are about body image and that’s exactly why so many people with ARFID feel invisible. When your relationship with food is driven by fear, sensory overwhelm, past trauma, or lack of interest—not weight—it can
Ah, the classic “I’m fine.” 
As a therapist, when I hear those words, my curiosity turns up, because so often, we’re not. We downplay the emotional wounds.
