Living with an eating disorder can be difficult, especially if left untreated. Thoughts about food and weight may take up your day and make it harder to enjoy meals, meetup with friends, or your daily routine.
Our online eating disorder therapy in New Mexico offers a secure space to talk openly about your thoughts and relationship with food and body. With the right tools and guidance, you can reduce negative thoughts about food and move towards a peaceful life.
Therapy can help with:
Constant worry or preoccupation with food, weight, or body image
Restricting food, skipping meals, or following strict food rules
Binge eating or feeling out of control around food
Purging through self-induced vomiting, laxatives, or other methods
Compulsive or excessive exercise and guilt for resting
In therapy, you will have a nonjudgmental and gentle space to talk about what you are going through, without being criticized or dismissed. You don’t need a specific body type, right story, or specific diagnosis to receive therapy.
Together, you and your therapist may:
Explore how your eating disorder developed and what it has been helping you cope with
Build skills for handling difficult emotions without turning to eating disorder behaviors
Look at patterns around food, exercise, and body image that feel hard to change
Work toward goals at a pace that respects your comfort and safety
We will take time to understand what triggers your issues around eating, and what techniques can be used to help you.
Awareness
Understanding Your Eating Disorder
We will look at how the eating disorder shows up in your daily life and what it has been protecting you from. Greater awareness can help you feel less confused and more prepared to make changes.
Healing
Repairing Your Relationship With Food
Therapy will support you in moving toward a more flexible and balanced way of eating. Over time, food can become less of a battle and more of a source of nourishment and connection.
Nourishment
Nourishment
You will work on seeing nourishment as a form of care instead of punishment or a reward. We will explore what it means to listen to your body’s signals with more trust and kindness.
Compassion
Softening Self-Criticism
People with eating disorders are usually hard on themselves. Our therapy will equip you with tools to talk gently with yourself, so shame and perfectionism lose their power.
Confidence
Reclaiming Your Sense of Self
Over time, you will have more control over your thoughts about food and your body, which will help you reclaim your sense of self and reconnect with who you are.
