About Janette Marsac
Raise your hand if any of this sounds like you: Food rules your life. You obsess over dieting. You’ve tried every fad. Eating and body weight are always on your mind. You’ve sacrificed relationships, important events, your health, and sanity to follow rigid, rule-based eating patterns and overly control your intake. And yet, you’ve felt out of control when eating and maybe can’t stop, even when you’re full. You turn to food when you’re stressed, bored, and sad. Instead of comfort, you’re left feeling guilty, ashamed, and numb.
Our relationship to food is so tied up in emotions that it can be overwhelming to try and stop spiraling into these negative patterns of binges and all-or-nothing thinking. You’re irritated and exhausted by the constant battle against your own body. If you’re someone who struggles in your relationship with food, has tied self-worth to a body weight or image, or has faced an eating disorder, body image disturbances, or chronic dieting, I’m here to help you rewrite your relationship with food and your body. You can learn to eat without being scared or anxious and you deserve to view food as nourishment, not a weapon.
As a psychotherapist and Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist specializing in emotional eating. I work with individuals struggling with habitual dieting, binge eating, self-esteem, and body positivity.
I understand it is extremely difficult to cultivate a healthy sense of self in body and mind amidst the pressures of diet culture, societal expectations, and social media. I provide individual therapy sessions to adolescents and adults. If this sounds like you, let's connect today!
