What Is an Eating Disorder?

Eating disorders are more than just about food or body image—they are deeply rooted in emotional and mental health. They can affect your overall well-being, leading to unhealthy habits and negative self-talk. If you’re finding yourself stuck in cycles of restrictive eating, binging, purging, or feeling out of control with food, it’s important to remember that help is available.

At Cultivate Counseling, we focus on addressing the emotional and psychological factors that fuel disordered eating, helping you regain balance and find a healthier relationship with food.

Eating disorders can look and feel different for everyone, but some common signs might include:

Obsessive thoughts about weight, food, or body image
Extreme dieting, food restriction, or overeating
Constant worry about calories, weight gain, or size
Withdrawal from social activities or meals
Physical symptoms like fatigue, dizziness, or changes in menstrual cycles
Guilt, shame, or anxiety around eating

If you’ve noticed any of these signs in yourself or someone close to you, therapy can make a big difference. Healing is possible, and it begins with understanding the root causes and building healthier habits.

How We Can Help You Heal

We take a compassionate, evidence-based approach to eating disorder therapy at Cultivate Counseling. Our weight-neutral dietitians help manage co-occuring conditions for clients with eating disorders and other issues to ensure a thorough experience of healing. Our goal is to help you uncover the emotional and mental barriers that contribute to disordered eating and develop a more peaceful, balanced relationship with food and your body. Our therapy is tailored to fit your specific needs, and we offer different approaches to best support your journey to recovery.

Here’s what we focus on:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): We’ll help you identify and challenge the negative thoughts and beliefs that impact how you view yourself, food, and your body. CBT helps you replace these thoughts with healthier, more realistic patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): DBT is a skills-based therapy that teaches you how to manage overwhelming emotions and build healthier coping mechanisms. It helps reduce impulsive behaviors, such as bingeing or purging, and promotes self-compassion.
Intuitive Eating & Body Acceptance: Instead of focusing on diets or restrictions, we help you reconnect with your body’s natural hunger signals. This approach is all about learning to trust yourself and your body while letting go of the guilt and shame tied to food.
Family-Based Therapy (FBT): Eating disorders often affect families, so we invite family members to be part of the healing process. This can strengthen your support system and help everyone understand how to best support your recovery.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): EMDR helps process traumatic memories by using guided eye movements to reduce emotional distress and promote healing.
Somatic Experiencing: This approach focuses on releasing stored tension in the body to heal trauma and restore balance through awareness of physical sensations.
ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): ART combines elements of visual imagery and rapid eye movements to help reframe and resolve traumatic memories quickly and effectively.
IFS (Internal Family Systems): IFS therapy helps you connect with different parts of yourself, healing inner conflicts and promoting a more integrated sense of self.
