Binge Eating Disorder Therapy in Warren, NJ
Do you feel out of control around food?
Not to worry. We can help you find other ways to cope besides using food. We can address the underlying factors contributing to binging, and work on coping skills to manage difficult emotions, and change thought patterns contributing to binging.
Break the cycle
We can explore underlying issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma, and perfectionism contributing to the cycle of binging and help you develop the skills to cope with these issues in a different way, so coping with food doesn't have to feel like your only option.
Listen to your body
Using a blend of CBT and DBT, we can help you become more attuned to your body and your emotions, and we can use mindfulness to help you connect to yourself so you can identify emotions associated with urges to binge and connect to hunger and fullness food.
Binging does not mean you don't have willpower
In fact, the opposite is true. When you restrict your diet too much, it can increase your chances of binging and even worsen it. I'll collaborate with your doctor and dietitian to make sure you're eating enough during the day to avoid binging and give you coping skills you can use.
Binging doesn't just apply to people in larger bodies
People in any body type can struggle with binging. In fact, there are people in larger bodies who don't binge as well. More goes into weight than what you eat. Weight loss is also not the goal in therapy.
