Life at times may feel like a relentless struggle, filled with sadness, discouragement, and overwhelming despair. As a psychologist, with more than 20 years experience, I can support you to overcome challenges such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, perfectionism, people pleasing, trauma, addiction, eating issues including binge eating, bulimia and anorexia and couples therapy. I utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS), an innovative and transformative therapeutic model for emotional healing of eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.
We can experience conflicting emotions like wanting to indulge in food, while also wanting to lose weight. IFS defines these emotions as parts of our internal emotional family. When this family is upset, it reacts, and we may feel emotional distress or physical illness, However, we have the ability to heal ourselves.
Understanding our internal family system can bring back harmony and moderation. With experienced guidance, in combination with IFS techniques, we can work together as you become the best version of yourself. I invite you take advantage of my complimentary 15 minutes consultation.
