Counselling for People With Disordered Eating

Understanding Eating Disorders

Eating disorders are complex mental health conditions that can profoundly impact individuals’ physical, emotional, and psychological well-being. At NeurAlive, we recognize the nuanced nature of eating disorders, understanding that they extend far beyond mere food choices. These disorders often stem from a combination of genetic, environmental, social, and psychological factors, making each person’s experience unique.

Eating disorders can manifest in various forms, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and other specified feeding and eating disorders (OSFED). They are characterized by disrupted eating behaviours, distorted body image, and intense emotional struggles related to food, weight, and self-worth.

For many individuals, eating disorders serve as coping mechanisms for underlying emotional pain, trauma, low self-esteem, or unresolved psychological issues. They can become entrenched patterns that impact every aspect of a person’s life, from relationships and social interactions to physical health and daily functioning.
