Eating disorders happen when concerns about food, weight, or body image start to control your thoughts and daily routines. You might skip meals, eat in secret, feel guilty after eating, or spend a lot of time fixating on your size and shape. These behaviors aren’t a choice or a fad—they’re signs of real emotional distress that can impact your health, mood, and relationships.
The hopeful news? With the right support and specialized therapy, it’s possible to heal, regain balance, and feel at peace with food and your body again.
If you're experiencing any of the following, reaching out for specialized support can make a profound difference in your relationship with food and your body:
At Layers Counseling Specialists, our eating disorder therapists provide warm, compassionate care for those navigating the challenges of anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and disordered eating. With experience in higher levels of care, they understand just how overwhelming and isolating the recovery process can feel—and they meet each client and family with empathy, patience, and hope.
Whether you're just starting your recovery journey or working to maintain the progress you've made, our therapists offer guidance grounded in evidence-based practices and a deep understanding of the emotional and behavioral roots of eating disorders. They gently address harmful patterns while helping clients build a healthier, more connected relationship with food, their bodies, and themselves.
We know that eating disorders rarely exist in isolation, which is why our therapists also collaborate closely with registered dietitians, psychiatrists, primary care providers, and other members of your treatment team to ensure care is coordinated and aligned. Because eating disorders affect not just individuals but their relationships and support systems, our therapists work with individuals, couples, and families to create a strong foundation for recovery.
