Eating patterns can be influenced by a range of factors, including sensory sensitivities and a need for sameness.

These are important to consider when understanding eating difficulties - particularly in neurodivergent individuals.

The right support starts with understanding what’s underlying the difficulty.

For many people experiencing eating difficulties, thoughts about food can take up a significant amount of mental space.

This can feel exhausting and isolating, but it’s something that can be worked through with the right support.

You don’t have to manage this on your own.

Eating disorders can be difficult to recognise because they don’t always present in obvious ways.

Someone may appear well on the outside, while experiencing significant distress around food or body image.

Early support can make a meaningful difference.

If this resonates, it may be worth reaching out for support.

Recovery doesn’t mean getting everything “right” with food.

It’s about building a more flexible, sustainable relationship with eating and with yourself.
That process can look different for everyone - but support can make it feel more manageable.

Binge eating is often misunderstood.

It’s not about a lack of willpower or control.

It’s usually characterised by:

• Eating large amounts of food in a short period

• Feeling out of control while eating

• Guilt, shame, or distress afterwards

For many people, it’s linked to restriction, stress, or emotional overwhelm.

Understanding what’s going on is the first step toward changing it.

Hi, I’m Tess, a Provisional Psychologist at Psychwest.

I support adolescents and adults experiencing eating disorders, disordered eating, body image concerns, and related emotional difficulties.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based therapies, including CBT-E, FBT and DBT-informed strategies.

I’m passionate about helping people build a healthier relationship with food and themselves in a space that feels safe and non-judgemental.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, playing video games, walking my Golden Retriever Bentley, and spending time with family and friends.

Signs of an Eating Disorder People Miss

Eating disorders don’t always look obvious.

It’s not just about weight loss.

It can look like:

• Skipping meals or eating very little during the day
• Eating in secret or feeling out of control around food
• Avoiding social situations involving food
• Increased anxiety, irritability, or withdrawal
Often, these changes happen gradually and can be easy to miss.

If something feels off, it’s worth paying attention to. Early support can make a big difference.
