We’re taught to think of food as an object. Something we can minimize or optimize. The means to an end. Something that we simply use.

Diet Culture completely ignores the fact that we have a relationship with food.

Returning back to Intuitive Eating isn’t a matter of finding the right amount of the right foods to eat. It’s about healing that relationship. Repairing that friendship that we might’ve lost decades ago.

Of course it’s going to feel awkward and uncomfortable when we first start to rekindle that friendship. And it doesn’t happen overnight.

As Mental Health Professionals, some of the most harmful messages we communicate… are the ones we don’t say out loud.

When we don’t name weight stigma — when we treat a client’s painful experience as a personal issue rather than a systemic one — our silence can unintentionally affirm Diet Culture’s loudest lie:

“Your body is the problem.”

But it’s not. The system is the problem. The anti-fat bias in our Diet Culture is the problem.

In my latest blog post, I break down how anti-fat bias sneaks into our language, our assumptions, and our silence — even when we’re trying to help.

If you’re a therapist committed to safer, more inclusive care, this is essential reading.

“Are we assuming we know what ‘health’ should look like for our clients?”

Most of us don’t mean to. But our training, our culture, and the constant noise of Diet Culture have taught us a very particular picture of “health”—one that often defaults to thinness, control, and optimization.

And unless we slow down and examine those assumptions, they slip into our questions… our encouragement… even our silence.

In my newest blog post, I explore how anti-fat bias gets wrapped inside the word ‘health’—and how it can quietly shape our clinical work, even when we believe we’re being supportive.

If you’re wanting to practice weight-inclusive care with more clarity, awareness, and compassion, this one’s for you. 💛

We use the word “health” in therapy all the time… but have you ever stopped to ask:

What do I really mean when I say “health”? And what does my client hear?

Even our most compassionate language can carry weight bias we didn’t realize we had absorbed through training, culture, and “common sense.”

In my newest blog post, I explore three subtle ways anti-fat bias gets threaded through our clinical conversations. The goal is for us, as professionals, to be able to recognize it without shame, defensiveness, or overwhelm.

Many people think they’re “just being careful” with food… when what they’re actually carrying is fear.

Fear of losing control.
Fear of weight gain.
Fear of judgment.
Fear of fullness itself.

These fears are so normalized that we often don’t see them for what they are.

My newest blog post breaks down how diet culture masks food fear — and how to start identifying these patterns in yourself with compassion and curiosity. A downloadable self-assessment is included.

Fear around food isn’t always obvious — it often hides in the day-to-day choices we make to avoid discomfort, shame, or judgment.

These quiet patterns take a toll, physically and emotionally.

I wrote a new blog post exploring what hidden food fear can look like, why it forms, and how to start noticing your own patterns. It includes a free self-assessment you can download and use for reflection.

Most people don’t think they’re afraid of food — because it doesn’t look dramatic.
Fear around food often looks like hesitation, guilt, micromanaging, bargaining, or trying to control your body through every bite.

In my new blog post, I walk through the subtle signs that food feels threatening and how Diet Culture teaches us to normalize that fear.

Plus, there’s a self-assessment to help you explore your own patterns with compassion.
