Frequently Asked Questions
-
I offer online counselling/therapy for eating disorders and body image issues. As an eating disorder specialist, I draw upon a range of models tailored your needs, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

On average, I work with people with binge eating and bulimia for around 6 months.

Yes - I work with a lot of people who have had therapy before that hasn’t helped. My approach is usually very different to what people have experienced before (something that people tell me is much more positive for them).
-
