Virtual ยท Adults ยท Arizona
Eating and body image therapy in Arizona
For adults whose relationship with food has gotten complicated in a way that's hard to explain: avoiding foods because of fear or texture, eating past full when the day finally slows down, or a body image that takes up too much room.
Brittaney Wood, LPC ยท $200 per 50-minute session ยท Virtual, anywhere in Arizona ยท Coordinates with dietitians
What I work with
ARFID. Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder, where eating is limited by fear, sensory sensitivity, or low interest in food, not by body image. My approach is informed by CBT-AR.
ADHD-related overeating and binge eating. Missed meals, eating for stimulation, or eating well past full in the evening.
Body image. When thoughts about your body take up more space than you want them to.
What I don't treat
I don't treat restriction-focused eating disorders such as anorexia, or bulimia. If that's what you're dealing with, I'll help you find someone who specializes in it.
How I approach it
No shame, no lectures
You already know what you "should" be doing. The work is understanding why it isn't happening.
Look at the whole system
Food patterns often connect to ADHD, anxiety, OCD, sleep, or schedules. We look at all of it.
Work alongside your care team
With your written permission, I coordinate with dietitians, prescribers, and primary care providers.
