If you healed what’s underneath your emotional eating, you wouldn’t keep slipping back into the same patterns you’re so tired of.

The food when you’re overwhelmed.
The wine when you’re stressed.
The pantry raids you swear you won’t do again.
The “I don’t know why I did that” feeling that hits you afterwards.

This isn’t a discipline issue.
It’s not that you don’t know what to do.
It’s not a motivation problem.

It’s your nervous system using food to regulate something it doesn’t feel safe to feel yet.

And until the part underneath feels supported, you’ll keep getting pulled into the same loops you’re trying so hard to break.

You’re not the problem.You’re overwhelmed.

You’re smart, self aware, and deeply capable.
You’ve done the therapy, the podcasts, the journaling, the resets.
You can explain your patterns inside out.

But no one sees the part of you quietly holding everything together.
The part powering through the day while coming undone in the quiet moments.
The part exhausted from being the strong one for everyone else.

There’s nothing wrong with you.
You’re just stretched thin, holding more than anyone realises.

And beneath all of it, there’s a version of you who just wants to exhale.
To feel like herself again.
To stop coping and start actually feeling good.

This is how it actually shows up

The stuff you rarely admit out loud.

You start the day determined to “be good” and end it back at the pantry or pouring the wine you swore you wouldn’t touch.

You hold it together all day, but the moment everything goes quiet, you unravel into food or scrolling or both.
It’s not hunger.
It’s relief.
Then guilt.

You over give when you’re already running on fumes.
At work.
At home.
With friends.
You’re the one filling the gaps, carrying the load, smoothing the edges.
Nobody checks how you are.

You swallow your truth to keep the peace.
It feels safer than saying what you really need.

Your relationships feel uneven or emotionally unsatisfying.
Or you keep dating men who can’t meet your depth or show up consistently.

Your career looks great on paper but feels flat inside your body.

You give incredible advice to everyone else but can’t seem to access it for yourself.

You miss yourself.
The you who laughed easily.
Who felt alive.
Who wasn’t coping her way through the week.

What’s actually going on

At some point, parts of you learned it was safer to:

• keep the peace
• not need too much
• be agreeable
• be the strong one
• carry the emotional load
• avoid rocking the boat

These parts aren’t wrong.
They’re protective.
They’ve been doing the best they can with what they learned.

But willpower won’t shift them.
A new diet won’t shift them.
A fresh start on Monday won’t shift them.

Because this isn’t about knowledge.
It’s about safety.

These patterns are not personality flaws.
They are nervous system adaptations formed in response to emotional overwhelm, unmet needs, and a lack of felt safety earlier in life.

Your system can’t let go of a behaviour it still believes is protecting you.

When you heal what’s underneath

The overwhelmed, scared, exhausted parts driving your emotional eating.

The coping behaviours you’ve been wrestling with finally lose their grip.

Not because you’re trying harder.
Because your nervous system no longer needs the coping.

Clients typically experience fewer binge episodes, more emotional regulation, less reactivity, and a deeper sense of steadiness and self trust.

You feel calmer.
Clearer.
Steadier.
More connected to your body.
More at home in yourself.

This isn’t about managing your patterns.
It’s about healing what’s been driving them.

Hi, I’m Megan

I’m an Internal Family Systems therapist who specialises in treating emotional eating at the root through trauma informed nervous system and parts based work.

The women who work with me are high functioning, emotionally intelligent, and self aware, yet stuck in emotional eating and coping loops they can’t think their way out of.

They know it’s not about food.
They know it’s not about willpower.
They know it’s not about another plan.

They’re just sick of cycling through shame, resets, and starting again Monday.

And when this deeper work lands, this is what they actually say:

“I’ve actually stopped binging.”
“I feel calmer.”
“I’m not snapping or reacting like I used to.”
“I don’t feel guilty saying no anymore.”
“I just realised other people’s emotions aren’t mine to carry.”
“I feel lighter.”
“I feel more like myself again.”

They don’t talk about discipline.
They talk about relief.

How you can work with me

I offer two ways to work with me.

One-off sessions
For orientation, support, or working with a specific issue.

Release & Reclaim
My twelve-week flagship therapeutic container for women who are stuck in emotional eating and self sabotage loops and are ready to work at the root.

This is not a quick fix.
It is not a guarantee.
It is a therapeutic process designed to help reduce compulsive eating, build emotional regulation, increase distress tolerance, and shift the parts that drive bingeing, soothing, and self sabotage patterns.

If you are considering Release & Reclaim, the first step is a free consultation call.
This is a chance for us to explore whether this container is the right fit for you, answer your questions, and make sure the scope and support level are appropriate for what you are working with.

Your turning point starts here

Not because there’s anything wrong with you.
Not because you need fixing.

But because something deeper in you is finally ready to heal.

You don’t need another plan.
You don’t need another reset.
You don’t need another Monday.

You need a space where your system can finally exhale.
