When perfectionism and anxiety collide, eating can become a way to manage emotions- or feel like the one thing you can control. But the rules get stricter, and the guilt gets louder.
You might feel like eating "perfectly" makes you good- and slipping up makes you a failure. The pressure to earn your worth through food and body image is exhausting, and it's not your fault.
You're not alone if eating, planning, or avoiding food has started to take over your life. It might look "fine" on the ouside, but inside, the mental load is constant- and we can help lighten it.
Whether you're stuck in cycles of restriction, bingeing, or obsessive food thoughts, we can help you break free from the rules and rituals that feel like they're running your life- so you can feel more present, nourished, and in control without being controlling.
Perfectionism can turn food and body image into a constant performance. We can help you learn to notice and challenge the harsh self-talk- and start showing up for yourself with more flexibility, patience, and care.
When food and body thoughts take over, it's easy to lose touch with your values, interests, and identity. We can create space for you to rediscover what truly matters to you- and help you build a life that feels meaningful, not just "in control."
We can help you let go of the rigid rules and unrealistic standards that keep you anxious and stuck. You'll learn how to make peace with food and your body- without sacrificing your goals or values.
Anxious perfectionists often believe there's a "right" way to eat or look. We can help you learn to listen to your body, trust your choices, and feel confident without needing to do everything perfectly.
Eating disorders often stem from deeper fears about control, worth, or failure. Together, we'll explore what's driving your behaviors so you can begin to understand them- not just fight them.
Using a blend of CBT and DBT, we'll work on skills to regulate emotions, interrupt destructive patterns, and help you respond to distress without turning to disordered behaviors.
You don't have to get everything "just right" to be okay. We'll help you shift rigid thinking into more flexible, compassionate thoughts that support real, sustainable change
Recovery isn't just about stopping behaviors- it's about reconnecting with who you are beyond the eating disorder. We can help you find purpose, joy, and freedom in the life you're building.
