Eating Disorders

Kathy Roberts, London, Ontario

Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Anorexia nervosa. Binge eating. Bulimia. ARFID. Pica. Orthorexia. These aren't just diets or lifestyle choices; they are complex mental health conditions characterized by dysfunctional eating behaviors and thoughts about food and weight. They can be dangerous to our mental and physical health. They are notoriously difficult to treat, and the road to recovery can be long. The earlier an eating disorder is detected and treated, the greater the chance of recovery. To treat an eating disorder, it is best to have a team that includes the person with the the eating disorder (and their parents and/or partner), a doctor (who may prescribe medicine), a dietician with expertise in eating disorders, and of course, a therapist. Usually, the immediate priority is behavioural change (e.g. eating less restrictively, reducing the frequency of purging or binging). During this stage, the role of the therapist is to support the journey toward tangible change, to help you manage your mental health and validate your feelings. As behaviours improve, a therapist can help you understand the contributing factors that led to the eating issues and body image problems; examine the thoughts, feelings and actions that maintain negative behaviour cycles; identify and gain insight into your triggers and how to manage them; improve your eating habits, self image, confidence, and resilience; and develop personalized coping strategies to replace negative behaviours like bingeing, vomiting, use of laxatives and diet pills, and over-exercise. ​The therapy part is what I do. I'm a compassionate, experienced and highly qualified counsellor. And eating disorder therapy is not just a sideline for me. For 9 years, my private practice has significantly focused on helping teens and young adults who are struggling with body image or eating challenges. I'm also connected; I know London's eating disorder resources, including local dieticians who specialize in eating disorders. If you or someone you love is struggling with these challenges, I can definitely help! My website [ krcounselling.ca/eating-disorders ] has lots of great information about the types of eating disorders, possible signs, common food rituals, and how eating disorders are treated. It also explains the role of talk therapy when dealing with an eating disorder ... and what to look for in an ED therapist.

Food is everywhere! It taunts us, lures us, keeps us hooked with sugars and fats. It creates a satiety for a moment that feels like a big sigh or deep released breath. But it has consequences and does damage. It is the necessary that can be addictive also. It impacts health and image as well as physical feelings. It spills over into our emotional well-being too. We can't run from it and we feel victimized when we can't enjoy it like we see others doing. Any of this sound familiar? I hear you, binge eating was my go to for decades, eating was a social safety clutch and my way to dong something that even if it hurt, stopped other cravings for a short time. Our value system scattered and belief system unsure we brave each day thinking maybe today I can change. Lets chat about it

Vancouver, British Columbia therapist: Kristen Bailey Counselling, counselor/therapist
Eating Disorders

Kristen Bailey Counselling

Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
I am here to support you whether you have an eating disorder or you can see there is some unhelpful patterning going on with your relationship with food. I have worked a great deal with the whole spectrum and have seen real success for people through therapy. This includes processing of one's familial history and messaging around food and weight and the impact this has had, skills around managing difficult thoughts and emotions, addressing fears around weight gain/giving up control and getting clear around what is important to you and how your relationship with your food and body may be getting in the way.
