A monthly space for therapists to deepen their understanding, clinical confidence, and compassionate care.

There are so many ways disordered eating quietly enters the therapy room.

Sometimes it arrives through conversations about food, body image, or weight.
Sometimes it lives beneath perfectionism, anxiety, control, trauma, addiction recovery, or identity transitions. Sometimes it is hidden in the language of “wellness,” rigid routines, shame, or the persistent feeling of never being enough. As clinicians, we often sense that something deeper is present — and may find ourselves wanting more support, more language, and a stronger framework for how to hold these conversations with care. Our monthly Disordered Eating Case Consultation Group was created as a space for exactly that.

​

Brief Summary of the Group

​

Led by Sophie DeJong, LMHC, this consultation group offers a warm, collaborative space

for therapists and helping professionals to bring cases, ask questions, and grow their

confidence in working with clients experiencing disordered eating, body image distress,

and complex relationships with food and self.

​

Sophie’s work is rooted in an anti-diet, Health at Every Size (HAES) framework, honoring body diversity, nervous system safety, and self-compassion as essential foundations for healing. Her clinical background spans eating disorder IOP and PHP programs, residential addiction treatment, college counseling centers, and multidisciplinary collaboration with eating-disorder-informed dietitians and medical providers.

​

Who This Group is For
 

• Therapists wanting to become more disordered-eating-informed

• Clinicians seeking consultation on complex client presentations

• Providers working with perfectionism, anxiety, addiction recovery, trauma, and body image concerns

• Associate therapists building competence in this specialty area

• Professionals wanting to integrate HAES-aligned, affirming, and trauma-informed care

 ​​

What We Will Explore Together

​

• food and body narratives

• shame, control, and perfectionism

• attachment and relational wounds

• identity and life transitions

• co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns

• referral pathways and interdisciplinary support

• how to ethically and confidently hold this work in the therapy room

​

We will also support clinicians in recognizing diagnostic patterns and differential considerations related to eating disorders and disordered eating, helping distinguish between subclinical symptoms, emerging presentations, and diagnosable eating disorders. This includes building confidence around assessment, clinical documentation, and knowing when a higher level of care or multidisciplinary referral may be indicated.

​

More than case consultation, this is a space for clinical reflection, community, and shared learning.

A place to slow down, think deeply, and strengthen the way we support clients in healing their relationship with food, body, and self. Whether you are already working with these themes or are hoping to become more informed in this area, this group offers a grounded and compassionate space to grow alongside other clinicians.
