Guiding You Towards a Brighter Future
The journey with an eating disorder often feels like walking through darkness alone. At Hopewell Counseling, I understand the complex emotions and challenges you're facing.​
Whether you're taking your first steps toward recovery, returning to your healing journey after a setback, or seeking a new approach to lasting change, you'll find a safe, non-judgmental space where your experiences are heard and validated.
Each person's relationship with food and their body tells a unique story. Let's explore your path to recovery at a pace that feels right for you.




The Weight of Isolation. Battling an eating disorder can feel like being trapped in a solitary struggle, where every day brings new challenges that seem impossible to share with others.
The Burden of Shame. Deep feelings of shame, guilt, and anger create invisible barriers that keep us from reaching out for the help and support we desperately need.
The Cycle of Coping. Finding yourself caught in patterns of using food-related behaviors to manage emotional pain can feel like being stuck in an endless loop that grows more overwhelming with each passing day.
The Loss of Control. Despite your desperate desire for peace and stability, your relationship with food and body image may feel increasingly overwhelming, making each day feel like an exhausting battle for control.
Eating Disorder Specialities
No two Eating Disorders are the same. However, there are certain characteristics that help classify them based on predictable ways of coping with distressing thoughts and feelings. Here are a few more common Eating Disorders we treat.
​

Anorexia​

Bulimia

ARFID

Binge Eating

Body Dismorphia

Compulsive Exercise
Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.

Living with an eating disorder can feel incredibly isolating and overwhelming. As your therapist, I understand the courage it takes to reach out for help.
