Do You Feel Like Food and Body Thoughts Rule Your Life?
Maybe you’ve spent years bouncing between restrictive eating and bingeing, feeling trapped in a cycle of shame, secrecy, and starting over. Maybe you’re constantly thinking about what you’ve eaten, what you will eat, and what you "shouldn't" have eaten. Or maybe you avoid food altogether because eating feels scary, overwhelming, or just not worth the stress.
You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. And you’re not alone.
You're coping the best way you know how, with rules, control, numbing, or avoidance. But deep down, you're exhausted.
You’re here because you know that this does not feel right.

Healing is possible, and it doesn’t require a “perfect” body, perfect eating, or more willpower. It requires support, self-compassion, and a safe space to do the deeper work. That’s what our trained team of clinicians is here for.
This is about more than food, it’s about freedom.
What Makes Us Different…
At Thrope Therapy, we offer more than just a space to talk—we offer a space to feel seen.
Our approach is radically different from many traditional therapy settings because we honor the full complexity of your lived experience, without judgment or stigma. We practice through an anti-diet and weight-inclusive, lens. That means we don’t pathologize your body, your eating, or your coping strategies we get curious about them with you.
We believe that health isn’t one-size-fits-all, it’s personal, evolving, and defined by you. At Thrope Therapy, we help you reconnect with your own version of health, one that’s rooted in self-trust, not external expectations. Whether that means finding peace with food, healing your relationship with your body, or building emotional resilience, we’re here to support what health genuinely looks and feels like for you.
We know that healing doesn’t come from shame or pressure to change. It comes from safety, trust, and connection. That’s why our therapy is relational, person-centered, and strengths-based you are the expert on your life, and we’re here to support your goals, not impose ours.
In session, expect warmth, honesty, and deep respect. Whether we’re exploring your relationship with food, navigating trauma, managing anxiety or depression, or working through identity and self-worth, we focus on building a strong, authentic connection. Many of our clients share that therapy with us feels different more affirming, more collaborative, and more real.
Outside of sessions, we offer text coaching to support you in your day-to-day life. We understand that emotional distress doesn’t wait for your weekly appointment, and we’re here to support you throughout the week too. The work we do in session will translate to skills you can practice during the week to feel better.
You don’t have to pretend everything is fine. You don’t have to shrink yourself physically or emotionally to be worthy of care. We’re here to help you feel more like you.
Here are the ways that we can work on this together:
Turn Down the Noise Around Food & Body: Quiet the constant mental chatter about calories, weight, and rules. Learn to trust your body’s cues instead of fighting them. Learn to practice mindfulness to increase awareness.
Build Confidence and Self-Compassion: Dismantle the critical inner voice that says you’re not doing “recovery right” and start believing in your ability to heal. Develop a strong inner voice that cheers you on.
Break the Binge/Restrict Cycle: Whether it’s bingeing, restricting, purging, or obsessive food rituals, we’ll identify the patterns and help you step out of them with curiosity and care.
Find Freedom in Nourishment, Not Perfection: You don’t have to get it “perfect” to recover. We’ll work on progress over perfection and embracing flexibility with food. Using the intuitive eating framework we can reset your relationship to food and find more flexibility and comfort.
Make Space for the Life You Want: Recovery creates room, for rest, joy, relationships, and purpose. We’ll help you set boundaries and make choices that support your full self.
