Query: Hi! I’m looking for a therapist who specializes in eating disorders or body image to answer some questions about emotional eating in a compassionate and non-shaming way. The angle here is that emotional eating is a valid and not inherently bad coping skill, but it’s best to have other skills in your “toolbox” too. My questions are;

  1. How can you tell if you’re emotionally eating?
  2. Why do we eat emotionally?
  3. Why is emotional eating okay, valid, and not something to feel guilty about?
