Many people may be aware that they have a difficult relationship with food and their body image but have no idea how to change. You may be fairly certain that you have an eating disorder such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia or binge eating disorder; or you may simply feel that you do not eat normally or healthily, are on a permanent diet, or are just constantly unhappy about your size and weight no matter how much or how little you eat and exercise.

Ideas about eating and body image in our society are complex and confusing and there are many myths  about the causes of eating disorders.  However, whatever the underlying cause, most people seeking help are aware that there may be personal issues which need to be looked at if they are to make a significant, long-lasting change.

The help I offer is focussed on your individual needs; the type of problem you have and your own particular attitude to food and to your body image.  My aim is to help you understand your relationship with food and your body. We will explore together some of the ways you may be using food and eating to get comfort, or a sense of control n your life, and how you can do this in other, healthier ways. We will experiment with ways in which you might begin to change your behaviour; and we will consider how you can  experience food as an enjoyable part of your life rather than a worry.
