EATING DISORDER THERAPY IN NEW YORK CITY
When thoughts about food and your body take over, it’s not just about eating. It’s a deeper message—often tied to control, perfectionism, or unspoken emotions beneath the surface. You’re not alone. Recovery starts with curiosity, compassion, and support. There’s a way out—and a way back to yourself.
when food & body become a full time job
Do you feel like your mind can’t stop obsessing about food —constantly tracking what you ate or didn’t eat, as if your worth depends on getting it exactly right? Maybe you catch yourself judging others for their food choices or bodies, feeling a fleeting sense of control. Or perhaps you swing between feeling completely in control one moment and utterly out of control the next—trapped in the exhausting good food/bad food spiral that robs you of peace and presence.
That shame that washes over you after eating—the belief that you’ve failed if you don’t follow every food rule perfectly—isn’t weakness. It’s what happens when perfectionism runs the show.
Many of our clients describe living in a constant state of not-enoughness. Not disciplined enough. Not small enough. Not worthy enough. Perfectionism promises control but delivers the opposite—a life ruled by impossible standards and relentless shame. Shame so deep, it can make you want to shrink yourself, take up less space, and disappear beneath it all.
We understand this cycle. And we know the way out isn’t more control—it’s self-compassion, curiosity, and uncovering the deeper needs behind the patterns.
We’ve got secrets (that aren’t really secret)
+ What your eating disorder doesn’t want you to know.
+ Uncovering the “Why?” behind your eating disorder.
+ Reclaiming your power, your peace, and your plate.
+ There is so much more to you.
Full recovery is possible
Here's what we want you to know to your core: you don't always have to live this way. Full recovery from an eating disorder is absolutely possible. Not a partial recovery where food is still complicated and your body is still the enemy—but a genuine freedom where food becomes food again, not a moral battlefield.
We've seen it happen. We've witnessed clients who once couldn't imagine a day without their eating disorder now living rich, full lives where thoughts about food and body take up an appropriate, rather than all-consuming , amount of space.
