Therapy for a Healthier Relationship with Food and Your Body
At Full Bloom Counseling, we understand that struggles with food, body image, and self-worth can feel overwhelming and deeply ingrained. If you find yourself trapped in cycles of bingeing, restricting, food guilt, or constant body dissatisfaction, you are not alone. Disordered eating often starts as a way to gain control, cope with emotions, or conform to societal pressures, but over time, it can take over your life. The good news is that healing is possible, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
What is Disordered Eating?
Disordered eating exists on a spectrum, affecting people regardless of their weight, background, or relationship with food. It is different from a diagnosed eating disorder but can still have a serious impact on mental, emotional, and physical health.
Some common signs of disordered eating include:
- Feeling guilt or shame around eating certain foods
- Thinking about food, calories, or weight constantly
- Repeated cycles of binge eating, restricting, or purging
- Avoiding social situations due to food anxiety or body concerns
- Exercising in a way that feels compulsive or driven by guilt
- Labeling foods as strictly “good” or “bad” and struggling with balance
While these behaviors may not meet the clinical criteria for an eating disorder, they can still be damaging and deserve attention. Therapy can help you break free from these exhausting patterns and build a healthier, more compassionate relationship with food and your body.
Who We Help
Disordered eating therapy is for anyone who feels stuck in an unhealthy relationship with food or their body. Our clients include individuals struggling with:
- Chronic dieting and weight cycling
- Binge eating, emotional eating, and compulsive eating patterns
- Fear of weight gain and body dissatisfaction
- Compulsive exercise or an unhealthy relationship with movement
- Rigid food rules or obsessive thoughts about eating
- Recovery from past restrictive eating patterns
You do not need to be underweight or have an eating disorder diagnosis to seek help. If food and body concerns are interfering with your happiness, energy, or ability to fully engage in life, therapy can help you find a new path forward.
Our Approach to Healing
At Full Bloom Counseling, we take an anti-diet, weight-inclusive, and trauma-informed approach to healing from disordered eating. We believe that your worth is not determined by the size of your body or the foods you eat. Instead of focusing on rigid food rules or weight loss, we help clients develop self-trust, body respect, and a balanced relationship with food.
Our work is grounded in:
- Health at Every Size (HAES®) – Shifting the focus from weight to overall well-being
- Intuitive Eating – Reconnecting with hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues
- Body Image Resilience – Challenging unrealistic beauty standards and fostering self-acceptance
- Trauma-Informed Therapy – Addressing past experiences that may have shaped your relationship with food and body image
We work collaboratively to explore your unique experiences, triggers, and beliefs about food and your body, helping you shift toward a more sustainable and compassionate mindset.
What to Expect in Therapy
Therapy for disordered eating is highly individualized. Together, we will:
- Identify the root causes of food and body struggles
- Explore and challenge harmful beliefs about food, weight, and self-worth
- Work on emotional regulation skills to manage triggers without turning to food or restriction
- Develop a more intuitive approach to eating based on trust and satisfaction
- Shift toward body neutrality and self-acceptance
Healing is not about perfection—it is about freedom. It is about reclaiming your time, energy, and mental space so that food and body worries no longer control your life.
“Your body is not an apology. It is a home, a vessel for your life. Treat it with the kindness it deserves.”
– Sonya Renee Taylor
