Online Therapy for Eating Disorder Treatment in California

Cultivate Body Acceptance and Food Freedom

Let’s face it: in our diet culture, being preoccupied with food and your body is the norm. Likewise, behaviors that result from these obsessions, like dieting and exercise, are often praised-especially here in California, where appearance and physical fitness are so often conflated with success and happiness. But hating yourself into a version of yourself that you love doesn’t work.

If you find yourself constantly yo-yo dieting, obsessing about food, or feeling bad about yourself because of your weight or shape, we’ll work together to help you break free from the obsessive thoughts, unhealthy behaviors, and deep fears that are keeping you stuck.

Here are some signs you may need treatment for an eating disorder:

• You restrict what you eat, counting calories, following rigid food rules, and/or limiting the variety of foods you eat.

• You often feel out of control around food, bingeing or eating compulsively when you’re not hungry.

• You’re preoccupied with your size and shape, deriving your self-worth from your appearance.

• You yo-yo diet, cycling between periods of dieting and periods of overeating.

• You obsess over the quality of your food and “clean” eating.

• You exercise, purge, or abuse laxatives to compensate for what you’ve eaten.

• You habitually turn to food to cope with overwhelming or uncomfortable emotions.
