I’m a recovered binge eater who changed the story from something that happened to me to something that happened for me. Now, I’m a licensed therapist teaching you to do the same.
My mission? To help you ditch food stress and live your life with mental peace and freedom every single day!
“Hey, Ry, why should I choose you as my binge-eating therapist? There are so many out there.” It’s a valid question, and I totally get where you’re coming from. But here’s the deal – I get it, like really, really get it.
Let me give you the shortened version of my story to explain why I’m the therapist you need for binge eating:
When I was just 13, I saw a picture of myself that I absolutely despised. That moment set me on a mission to lose weight, and boy, did I succeed – maybe a little too much.
I lost so much weight that it came at a cost:
My parents were genuinely worried, to the point where they told me they were going to hospitalize me. I panicked. In a desperate attempt to prove I was fine, I devoured as much food as I could get my hands on. That was the moment I unwittingly opened the floodgates to binge eating.
No matter how hard I tried to regain the “control” I once had, I felt even more out of control. I went from meticulously sneaking food when no one was looking, to going on secret grocery store binges, to ordering takeout like there was no tomorrow whenever I was home alone.
I even spent thousands of dollars on every diet, weight loss program, diet pill, juice cleanse – you name it. I’d make it a few days of being “good” until suddenly, BAM – I’d devour everything in sight because, why not, I’d just “start again tomorrow.” This was my entire life for seven long years.
Finally, I reached a point where I couldn’t keep this up any longer. I hit rock bottom, and I hit it hard. That’s when I embarked on a mission to find a way out – and guess what? I found it.
Now, I’m here to show you the way.
I’m not just another therapist. I’m someone who’s walked in your shoes, who’s experienced the despair, the frustration, and the constant battle with binge eating. I understand the shame, guilt, and isolation that come with it.
I’ve been through it all, from the dark days to the moments of hope and, eventually, the path to healing. I know what it’s like to feel trapped in that endless cycle and how it feels to break free.
I don’t offer empty advice or textbook solutions. I offer genuine empathy and real-life experience. I offer the hand you need to pull you out of that pit of binge eating and guide you toward a brighter, healthier future.
So, why choose me? Because I’ve been where you are, and I’m here to help you find your way out, just like I did.
