Free Virtual Consultation
In this ten minute virtual meeting, we can tell you a bit about what we do, and answer any of your questions about Bodywise. If our program feels like a good fit for you, we can schedule a first appointment.
Individual Therapy
Bodywise therapists work with clients to understand and explore the many factors that drive binge eating. Binge eating may be a result of dieting and food restriction, a response to the impact of past difficult experiences, a way to cope with current stressors, or a combination of all three. We seek to help clients feel empowered to address these issues with more self-compassion and insight, creating gentle, sustainable change. Individual therapy may be covered by insurance; please contact us for details.
Additional Recovery Support
Bodywise also offers coaching, meal support, psychoeducation, emotional, and behavioral support as needed in between therapy sessions. Please contact us for details.
Nutrition Counseling
The Bodywise approach is centered on building the ability to eat with mindful attention to your body’s messages. We deeply believe that unlearning harmful diet culture messages while learning your body’s unique needs for food and movement, creates sustainable change. Nutrition appointments may be covered by insurance; please contact us for details.

Couples and Family Therapy Counseling
Often those closest to us can be of significant help in the recovery process.
