What's your experience with clients with eating disorders?
Diets don't work. In fact, diets are the number one risk factor for obesity and eating disorders. We believe you know your own body best, and so we utilize intuitive eating practices to put you back in control of making decisions about food. In a nutshell intuitive eating is eating when you are hungry, and stopping when you are satisfied. Simple in theory but complex in application. We use mindfulness practices to help you get back in touch with your emotions and with your body. Most people use binging or restricting to numb out, so we provide guidance on how to sit with uncomfortable thoughts and emotions, increasing what you are able to tolerate. Spotted Rabbit Studio doesn't just treat the symptoms; Our therapists get to the root of what is leading you to use food related behaviors to cope. Often, folks with disordered have experienced trauma and/or abuse so we start by processing those experiences and helping you take action to create a more meaningful life. We also focus on empowering you with more effective communication skills, and better awareness of what is needed to develop and maintain healthy relationships, including setting boundaries and letting go of toxic relationships when needed. Lastly, our therapists truly believe that all bodies are worthy and we follow a HAES (Health at Every Size) philosophy with our clients, and with ourselves. We've done the research and know that being fat doesn't automatically make you unhealthy. We also know that you can take some steps right now that will improve your health even if your weight doesn't change at all. We're here to support you in being the best version of yourself possible while maintaining a balance of emotional and physical wellness.
We all want to love, be loved, do something meaningful, and have purpose in our lives, yet all too often prior relationships and life experiences have left us with coping skills that are unhealthy, ineffective or just downright baffling. As a practice, Spotted Rabbit Studio specializes in working with adults who have a history of childhood emotional abuse and/or neglect. Those we work with often find that they have difficulty with relationships, struggle to relax, and wish they were in more control of their lives. For clients with disordered eating, we work from a HAES and intuitive eating approach. Additionally, several of our therapists are LGBTQIA+ and we work with clients to explore and develop their gender and sexual identity. We also specialize in teens and adults with neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, OCD). Some of our therapists are in network with Cigna and MVP commercial plans. We offer sessions in-person at our Studios in Brighton and Pittsford NY, or online.
