Disordered Eating Counseling

When food, body image, or control begins to carry emotional weight

Disordered eating can involve restriction, bingeing, purging, compulsive exercise, body checking, fear around food, or a constant preoccupation with weight and control. These patterns often develop in response to pain, anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, or the pressure to feel safe and acceptable in one’s body.

At Selah Counseling & Wellness, disordered eating counseling is compassionate and non-shaming. Therapy helps make sense of the emotional and relational drivers beneath the pattern while supporting more grounded ways of caring for your body and relating to food.

Common signs of disordered eating:

  • Rigid food rules or fear around eating
  • Cycles of restriction, overeating, or loss of control
  • Intense body dissatisfaction or body checking
  • Guilt, shame, or anxiety related to food
  • Using food or body control to manage emotions
  • Isolation, secrecy, or distress around meals
