By eating tendencies, we understand both eating disorders (ED)<\/strong> and any eating pattern that can be harmful and cause suffering, even if it does not meet the criteria for a disorder.<\/p>\n

Learning to accept<\/strong> oneself unconditionally<\/strong>, increasing self-esteem<\/strong>, managing the eating habits<\/strong>, learning to relate differently, developing healthier tools<\/strong> for managing emotions, being more self-aware,<\/strong> are, among other things, what we intend to do in therapy. Why? In order to get rid of the need to use food as a tool and start using it for its primary purpose – which is nutrition and pleasure.<\/p>\n
