Eating Disorders Therapists in Kirkland, QC

I work with people who struggle with binge eating, emotional eating, yo-yo dieting, body image issues, and weight management. Together, we’ll identify what’s contributed to your problematic relationship with food, explore ways of expressing, processing and coping with those issues, and help you recreate a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with yourself, your body and food. You will also learn to cope with the challenges of life without needing to rely on food. You can break free from the destructive cycle of dieting and emotional eating!

Many of our clients are struggling with multiple issues - depression, anxiety, relationship problems, overeating - and often feel like everything is wrong and don't know why. Some have tried therapy before, but either didn't feel understood, or the work didn't lead to lasting change. If you see yourself in any of the following, we can help: have trouble forming or keeping relationships; stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns; feel burned out, running on empty, and can never quite seem to catch up; feel as though everyone else comes first; worry constantly about the stresses of life; can't seem to slow down and relax; constant feelings of panic or anxiety; self-sabotaging or self-destructive behaviour; feel disconnected from yourself or others; feelings of being numb; struggle with emotional eating and poor body image; low self-esteem or lack of confidence; victim of abuse or neglect, in childhood or adulthood. Our clients may struggle with any of these issues, among others, but all have one thing in common: they are ready to do the real work of healing the source of their suffering.

Do you struggle with feeling like you are constantly in survival mode? Do you feel like you somehow manage to get through your day to day but are constantly feeling exhausted, anxious, or depressed? Do you sometimes feel that you do not know who you are outside of your daily responsibilities? Do you feel like you are unable to cope or use unhealthy coping skills to get by? Do you wish that you can go from surviving to actually living? If you have answered yes to one or more of these questions, you are one of the many people whom, in today’s society, struggle to find healthy balance.

I have worked in the therapeutic field for upward of 15 years. I offer (licensed) psychotherapy to adults and adolescents. My practice is based on acceptance and kindness. I hold a strong belief that there is no room for judgment. I will work with you to create a therapeutic journey that feeds your personal curiosity, builds upon the strengths you already have and teaches you new techniques for coping with stress and sadness. You will learn to identify your goals, what frustrations you face, what changes you wish to make and how to implement those changes in a safe and honest environment.

Looking for a deeper exploration of what keeps you stuck or in a repeated pattern? Developmental trauma / trauma affecting your ability to engage in life and with others? Anxiety & depression make it hard to regulate? Struggling in your relationship or family relationships? Would you and your partner like to feel closer and better connected? Do you find yourselves having the same fight repeatedly? Would you would like to improve communication and intimacy? My goal is to go beyond tools to free yourself from the negative cycles of conflict and despair; where you will find a new way to experience yourself and your relationships.
