Parts Therapy
A structured conversation in trance with the specific part of you that carries the symptom, so it can update what it is doing.
The part that experiences restriction as safety is engaged respectfully, at the pace your team sets.
Hypnotherapy for Anorexia
Adjunctive hypnotherapy support for anorexia, only alongside a licensed treatment team.
How We See It
Anorexia is a serious medical and psychiatric illness with real physical risk. It is not a habit and it is not treated as one here.
Where a client is already in treatment, hypnotherapy can support anxiety around meals, body-image distress, and the fear that treatment progress will not be survivable.
What People Usually Describe
- —Restriction is experienced as safety or as control
- —Body perception does not match what others see
- —Meals produce anticipatory dread
- —Recovery feels like losing an identity
How We Make the Change
Anchoring
Attaching a calm, resourceful state to a physical cue you can use in the moment you need it.
A calming response is built for the anxiety that surrounds meals.
Reframing
Changing the meaning attached to an event or urge so the same facts stop producing the same reaction.
Recovery is reframed so it stops reading as loss of self.
