Fear of weight gain can feel overwhelming, but it’s not a sign of vanity or weakness.
It’s often a reflection of the messages we’ve been taught: that our worth, loveability, or even health depend on how we look. These beliefs take root early and can quietly influence how we eat, move, and think about ourselves for years.

Therapy can help you explore where these fears come from and begin to rewrite them with compassion. Healing isn’t about forcing body love. It’s about learning to trust your body, make peace with change, and feel safe within yourself again.

Amanda Poelzer supports clients in navigating disordered eating, self-esteem, and body image concerns through a gentle, collaborative approach that helps them reconnect with their bodies and values.

Food guilt doesn’t come from nowhere. It’s something we’re taught.

Messages about “good” and “bad” foods, “earning” treats, or needing to “burn off” meals create shame around one of the most natural human needs: nourishment.
Healing your relationship with food isn’t about perfect eating. Rather, it’s about trusting your body again.

That might mean challenging the urge to overthink every bite, noticing the voices that call you “good” or “bad” for what you eat, and gently replacing guilt with curiosity.

Therapy can help you explore where these beliefs came from and begin to make peace with eating again without rules, judgment, or restriction.

Disordered eating doesn’t always look like what you’d expect and it can affect anyone, at any size.

It might look like:
🍽️ Skipping meals to save calories
💭 Feeling guilty after eating certain foods
⚖️ Overexercising to “make up” for eating
🥗 Labeling foods as “good” or “bad”

These patterns often come from fear, shame, or a need for control, not from a lack of willpower. Therapy can help you understand why food feels so loaded, and begin to rebuild trust in your body.

Not all disordered eating meets the criteria for an eating disorder — but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth addressing. Disordered eating refers to ongoing, harmful patterns with food, exercise, or body image — like skipping meals, obsessing over calories, or feeling guilt after eating. Eating disorders are clinical diagnoses that often come with severe physical, emotional, and psychological effects.

You don’t have to wait until things feel “bad enough” to deserve help. Early support can prevent those patterns from deepening.

For many parents, it’s hard to tell when a child’s eating habits become something more concerning.

You might notice your child skipping meals, avoiding family dinners, or becoming increasingly anxious around food and wonder if it’s “just a phase.” Sometimes, these behaviours fall under disordered eating rather than a diagnosed eating disorder, but that doesn’t make them any less serious. Early support can make a tremendous difference in helping your child rebuild trust with food and their body before the patterns deepen. Therapy offers a safe space for both children and parents to understand what’s happening beneath the surface and how to support healing together.

Children learn more from what we do than from what we say. Every action, every choice we make as parents shapes their understanding of kindness, resilience, and love. Let’s lead by example, not just words, to inspire the values we hope to see in them.
