Eating Disorder Treatment and Eating Disorder Therapy
There is no one right way to recover from an eating disorder and no one size fits all approach. As someone who has also struggled with an Eating Disorder , I believe that full recovery is possible, not just symptom improvement or weight restoration. I will work with you to create your own personalised eating disorder treatment plan using a diverse range of therapeutic approaches dependent on your needs.
I will meet you exactly where you are and you we will work closely together for as long as you need or until you feel confident enough that you no longer need my guidance. You can visit me at my eating disorder clinic in Sydney or online. My goal is to empower you to let go of what no longer serves you and reconnect with who you really are.

My Approach to Eating Disorder Therapy
Living with an Eating Disorder can be an extremely lonely, isolating place to be. I believe that collaboration is key to eating disorder treatment, where you and I will work together to create a recovery path that best suits you. There is no one-size fits all when it comes to eating disorder therapy, which is why I use a range of therapeutic models and approaches tailored to unique requirements of each client. Together we will look at both conscious and subconscious patterns keeping you stuck, aiming to uncover the root cause to your eating disorder. I call this 'inside-out recovery' which goes way beyond just changing your behaviours around food.
As someone who has fully recovered from an eating disorder, I whole-heatedly believe that full recovery is possible with the right eating disorder treatment, eating disorder therapist and support.
My goal is to show you the incredible amount of possibility and power that’s within you. You already have all the resources you need . I’m just here to help you find the strength to live the life you deserve.
