Eating Disorder Information
I have experience working with body image and eating disorders. Recovery is different for every one, and you will have different needs throughout your journey. Counselling provides you the space to explore emotional issues in a safe place, get information and tools, and to learn what works best for you. Recovery is possible, reaching out for help is essential and hope is eternal.
Eating disorders are a serious mental illness requiring specialist medical care. If you are seeing me for support and are diagnosed with an eating disorder, it is important that you are connected to a medical practitioner, dietician or nutritionist and have good mental health support. I provide counselling that is designed to be one part of your treatment and I may ask your permission to contact your other health professionals in order that our work is consistent and in your best interests.
