When eating feels out of control
Do you find yourself eating when you're not physically hungry, feeling out of control around certain foods, or using food to cope with stress, anxiety, boredom, loneliness, or difficult emotions? This group is for adults who feel caught in cycles of binge eating, emotional eating, restriction, guilt, and trying to “start over” again.
We'll look at what is actually happening in the brain and body when these patterns develop—and why this isn't simply a matter of willpower or “just making better choices.” Understanding the brain's role can help reduce shame and create new ways of responding.
Together, we'll explore the emotional and behavioral patterns underneath eating, learn skills for managing difficult emotions and urges, work with rigid food rules, and develop a more flexible relationship with food.
The goal isn't another diet or another set of food rules. It's understanding the cycle and learning how to get out of it.
This is an 8 week group that is a closed group once it starts.
Beyond the Food Noise: Navigating the Emotional Journey of GLP-1’s
Many people expect GLP-1 medications to change their eating and quiet food noise. This therapy group explores the emotional impact of:
Weight loss and changes in the body
Coping with comments, attention and reactions from others
Adjusting to change in appetite, hunger and role food plays in your life
Processing shame, guilt and any complicated feelings about using medication
Exploring disappointment when medication or weight loss doesn’t feel the way you expected it would
Managing anxiety about progress, maintenance or weight regain.
Participants will have the opportunity to process their experiences in a supportive, nonjudgmental therapeutic environment while developing a deeper understanding of the thoughts, emotions, and patterns that remain even when food no longer serves the same role. This group is virtual and open to AZ, CO, NV and WI.
Adolescent In-Person Group (Wisconsin)
Being a teenager is hard enough without feeling like you have to figure out your body, food, and how you're “supposed” to look at the same time.
This group gives adolescents a place to talk about body image, food, eating, comparison, and the pressures they're experiencing with peers and social media. They'll learn from each other and develop tools for navigating these challenges without letting food or body image take over.
Parents are part of the group process, too. The parent component helps you understand what your teen is experiencing and gives you practical guidance for supporting them at home—without turning every meal into a battle or every conversation into a discussion about food. Parents will meet one week a month on the 3rd Tuesday of the month
The group is designed for adolescents experiencing body image concerns, disordered eating, food anxiety, restrictive eating, emotional eating, or increasing preoccupation with food, weight, or appearance.
This group is a closed group that will be for 12 weeks.
Sorry I take up space.
A 12-week virtual therapy group for people who have experienced body- and weight-based stigma and are tired of apologizing and feeling shame for it.
This group is about what it’s actually like to move through the world when your body doesn’t fit the size and appearance expectations we’re taught to meet—and the shame that can come with it.
We’ll talk about food, relationships, dating, intimacy, clothing, healthcare, comments from other people, comparison, and all the ways we may have learned to make ourselves smaller, quieter, or less visible.
This isn’t a body positivity group. It’s not a weight-loss group. And it’s not about forcing yourself to love your body.
It’s a space to explore the shame we carry, where it came from, how it affects our relationships and everyday lives, and what happens when we start questioning the rules we’ve been handed about whose bodies are acceptable.
Because you shouldn’t have to spend your life apologizing for taking up space.
