They are often shaped by culture, trauma, identity, and survival strategies. Our approach is rooted in Health at Every Size\u00ae (HAES), body liberation, and social justice values, creating a welcoming, judgment-free space for clients of all sizes, identities, and backgrounds. We work with those experiencing restriction, bingeing, overexercise, chronic food guilt, and other challenges in their relationship with food and body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Our work may draw from:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Internal Family Systems (IFS)<\/strong> to support parts of you that carry fear, shame, or control<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Narrative therapy<\/em><\/strong> to challenge and rewrite harmful body and food beliefs<em><br><\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Expressive and creative tools<\/strong>, such as art or culinary-based practices, to reconnect with food through ritual and creativity<em><br><\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Person-centered, trauma-informed care<\/strong> that respects your pace, needs, and autonomy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/asdah.org\/\">Learn more about HAES and body liberation<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.intuitiveeating.org\/\">Explore Intuitive Eating<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This work is not about fixing you.
