Eating Disorders & Disordered Eating

Issues relating to food and body image can often be some of the most difficult to overcome. It’s our goal to help you live each day free from the grips of the insecurities and fear that come with constant rumination and obsession around food, size, and appearance.

“Our relationship with food is one of the most significant we partake in. It’s one we face every day, multiple times a day, each day of our lives.” - Alexis Sturnick, Founder & Lead Psychotherapist of Resilience Therapy

Reclaim your life. Rediscover your resilience

At Resilience Therapy we provide compassionate and evidence-based care for those struggling with food and body image issues. There’s a large pendulum that people often experience when dealing with these obstacles, which can range from disordered eating, body dysmorphia, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and orthorexia. We understand that each person's experience in their relationship with food and body is unique, even within the same diagnosis.

The therapists of Resilience Therapy understand there’s a significant link between eating disorders and mental health. This is specifically clear in a generation of young adults that are already facing an escalating mental health crisis, with the highest reports of anxiety and depression of any demographic. Intense pressures of finding a purpose and direction in life, feelings of isolation, and the excessive influence of social media all contribute to the increase in food and body image issues that negatively impact mental wellness. 

We know the importance of considering the whole person and strive to support your journey to self-love and acceptance. Know that healing is possible and that we will walk alongside you on your journey to recovery.
