Therapy for food shame and eating disorders in Long Beach, California

Therapy to Get Control of Food

Are you trapped in a food struggle?

At Psych Lab, we understand how complicated a person’s relationship with food can be. It's not just about what you eat – it's tied to your emotions, your past, and how you see yourself. We’re here to help you flip the script so food can nurture you instead of torturing you.

Our approach is comprehensive and personalized. We'll work together to uncover why food has had such power over you and identify your stress triggers around eating. Through your therapy sessions, you'll develop healthier ways to handle tough emotions, build genuine self-esteem independent of food or weight, and create a realistic, long-term plan for a better relationship with food.

Ready to stop the food fight and start living? Let's take that first step together.
