Is it time to work on your relationship with food or your body image?
Concerned about your teen, and wanting to set them on the right path?

Our team of Dietitians and Psychologists are uniquely skilled to help, and our Dietetics team all have additional counselling training to handle these topics with sensitivity, as well as teaching carers skills to support their young person.

In October, we have the lovely Mali joining our Dietetics Team, and we're offering a discounted $99 first appointment during October only.

So if you've been noticing that relationship with food is feeling difficult, now's your chance to start the conversation, and start building your path to a more intuitive, mindful approach to nutrition and self care, and rebuilding trust in your body.

- What is actually is, and what to do about it!

It's a buzz word right now, but over this Dietitian's almost 20yr career it's been a very familiar presence long before it had a catchy name!

It's also something that's very treatable, once you understand what's driving it.

Meet our lovely newest psychology team member Grace for free in Sep/Oct!

Grace is finishing the last few months of her internship with us, hence the ability to offer a free, no obligation meeting :)

If you or your kiddo (13 & up) is feeling unsure about getting some support, of you'd just like a 2nd opinion, or to talk about a different approach to therapy than you've possibly experienced before, this is a great way to meet Grace, in a low pressure environment.

Alongside relationship with food and body image, Grace can help with:
Anxiety and depression
OCD and intrusive thoughts
Perfectionism
ADHD and neurodivergence
Trauma-informed support
Chronic pain
School refusal
Life transitions and adjustment
Parent and carer support

To read her full bio, watch her intro video, and book online if you're ready, head to our website: https://liberationclinic.com.au/psychologists/

Hoping this is helpful for a few people and their families, and feel free to share if you know someone who might be interested :)

Where do you feel stuck with helping your teen to develop positive body image?

We're preparing a new workshop for parents, to teach you what you can say and do that will actually help, and how to talk to teens about this in a way they’ll listen.

We really want this workshop to speak directly to real challenges parents have, so we'd love for you to share:
- What do you notice at home that worries you, and you'd like support to manage it?
- What feels awkward when talk about bodies or health comes up?
- When do you feel stuck, and not know what to say or do?

This work is so important to us, because body image image resilience is such a huge protective factor against developing an eating disorder, as well as the negative impact that body image challenges can have on confidence, self worth, depression & anxiety. It's also an area where carers can make a big difference, and we really believe parents are their kids' best source of support!

We're so appreciative of any thoughts you're happy to share, and anonymous answers are of course very welcome.

If you'd like to hear when the workshop is finished and get more info, you can subscribe to our email newsletter via our website/ email [email protected] asking to hear about the workshop/ or just DM me with the best email :)

Thanking you so much in advance!!
Emma (Director, and fellow tween mum)

A lot of people think they need to feel fully motivated or “ready” before seeking support for an eating disorder or disordered eating. In reality, many clients walk into their first session feeling deeply conflicted.

Part of them wants freedom, flexibility, energy, and peace around food. Another part feels terrified of letting go of behaviours that have helped them cope or feel safe. Both can exist at the same time.

As an eating disorder dietitian, my role is not to force recovery or pressure someone into change before they are ready. Often, the first step is simply creating space to understand what the eating disorder is doing for you, what fears exist underneath it, and what support might feel manageable right now.

Recovery does not begin with perfection or certainty. Often, it begins with curiosity, compassion, and one small step towards support.

Would love to hear what helped you to make the call and seek support!

You don't need to look ‘sick’ to deserve eating disorder recovery.
ALL bodies deserve care, nourishment, safety, and recovery.

One of the biggest misconceptions I see as an eating disorder dietitian, is the belief that someone has to look a certain way before their struggles are considered “serious enough.” But eating disorders and disordered eating do not have one body type, one appearance, or one story.

You also don't need a formal diagnosis to seek support. If food, eating, movement, or body image are taking up mental space, impacting your relationships, increasing anxiety, or making life feel smaller - that matters.

Many people minimise their experiences because they are still functioning, still socialising, still working, or because others cannot “see” what is happening internally. But distress around food and eating deserves support long before things reach crisis point.

You're allowed to ask for help even if you feel unsure.
You are worthy of care exactly as you are today.

For many children with feeding difficulties, being listened to builds trust, reduces fear, and opens the door to curiosity.

One simple tool I often use is a food preferences list:
• foods that look interesting
• foods that feel like a “maybe”
• foods that are a definite no
No pressure to eat - just exploring.

If your child’s eating feels stuck or causes distress (for you or them), the Dietitians at Liberation Clinic have extra post-grad training in feeding challenges, and can help you move forward - gently and safely.
