Discover the real reasons behind your eating, weight, and body image issues. Do you hate your job and binge eat at night? Are you compensating for poor relationships with food? Do you hate getting dressed each morning? It's time to take a deeper look. As a Psychological Counselor, I am trained to get to the root of your eating and body image challenges. We all turn to food for so many reasons that have nothing to do with hunger. Make peace with food and your body. Learn to cope with your emotions and discover what you're really hungry for!
The Runaway Fork is right for you if you obsess about food constantly; you are weary of dieting, yet terrified of eating; you hate your body; you cannot tolerate one more night of overeating; you have lost and regained the weight - again; or you know what to do, but you just don't do it.
Call or email me with questions! It's free. Book a walk-and-talk-session outdoors, or try online counseling from your home. What about a group? A very popular choice to get the support you need from people who understand.
