Capitol Nutrition

I started private counseling with Rebecca shortly after reading Body Kindness. I had been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and found myself engaging in disordered eating behaviors. What I didn't realize at the time was that I had an undiagnosed eating disorder and I had had it for most of my life. As someone with a significant trauma history, getting medical help is difficult. Rebecca was the first person besides my therapist that I felt comfortable disclosing my trauma history to. Not only is she a trauma informed practitioner, she is also compassionate, kind and supportive. Rebecca helped me understand my diabetes diagnosis and taught me that losing weight is not the only treatment option. Because she is trauma informed, she has been able to help me find connections between my eating disorder and my trauma history. As an added bonus, my work with Rebecca is grounded in the Body Kindness philosophy which directly aligns with my values. With Rebecca's help, I've learned new coping skills and how to advocate for myself.
