Recovery is possible. Start here.

Understanding Binge Eating
Binge Eating Disorder is ultimately not about the food, and it’s not about needing “the willpower” to stop. It is a serious, complex condition that deserves to be supported by a professional who can understand your lived experience with compassion, not judgment.
Binge Eating Disorder is characterized by eating what is considered a large quantity of food over a two hour period of time while feeling out of control or shameful. These binge episodes happen at least once a week and are not followed by compensatory behaviors—behaviors such as self-induced vomiting or misuse of laxatives.
Getting help for Binge Eating Disorder can be hard. While it can be hard to reach out, I encourage you to schedule a free consultation today.
