Transform your Relationship with Food

UK Based Online Therapy

Are you consumed by dieting or exercising, binging or restricting, emotional eating or always thinking about food?

Are you tired of living with the negative impact your relationship with food and your body is having on your life and yourSELF?

Imagine being able to engage fully with life rather than worrying about food and your body.

Whether you have received an official eating disorder diagnosis or not, support is here, and full recovery from an eating disorder or disordered eating is possible.

My name is Catherine, I am based in the UK and offer individual online therapy for adults who struggle with their relationship with food and their body. I specialise in helping people recover from binge eating disorder, bulimia and disordered eating. Find out more about me here.

I work with clients across the UK and Ireland – in London, Dublin, Birmingham, Leeds, Edinburgh, Belfast, Glasgow, Manchester – and am available to support you wherever you are in the world.

I can help you silence food noise, stop emotional eating and step out of the diet-binge(-purge) cycle FOR GOOD.

My Approach

I work primarily from a Psychodynamic perspective. This means that the scope of our Therapy sessions will extend far beyond food…and in some sessions we may not talk about food at all.  This is because

Eating and body issues are about emotions and feelings.

A psychodynamic approach to therapy focuses on the emotional roots of eating struggles — many of which are unconscious and formed in early relationships. This means that together we will gain an understanding of the root causes of where your disordered eating came from and how it is linked to your past experiences. We will think about your changing emotions and feelings towards yourself and others, we will discuss childhood memories and relationships, and think about the significance of the past and its repetition in the present.

In making sense of your emotional world we can gain insight into why you feel and behave the way you do. From there you will be able to learn healthier ways of coping with emotions and of relating to yourself and others. This will allow you to manage your life differently to move towards the type of life that you want. 

Psychodynamic therapy offers meaningful, lasting change.

Within our sessions I might also incorporate elements of enhanced CBT for Eating Disorders and Intuitive Eating. These methodologies can offer some additional practical tools which I find are very helpful to support you in everyday recovery.

Additionally I work from an anti-diet perspective, this means acknowledging the context and damaging effect of the diet-obsessed world we live in. I also advocate for a HAES (Health at Every Size) and Intuitive Eating approach to food.
