People meet with me for a variety of reasons. Some are tired of the weight loss roller coaster. Some want to change their body composition. Some have a new diagnosis of diabetes or high cholesterol. Many of my clients will tell you that they were nervous in the beginning. They thought I would take all of their favorite foods away. After one visit, however, they felt relieved, understood, and confident. To begin, we'll discuss your goals and challenges, and develop a diet plan that works with your lifestyle. Then you will receive ongoing support to keep you on track and ensure you achieve your goals.

Emotional Eating Nutritionists and Dietitians

What is emotional eating?

Emotional eating refers to using food as a coping mechanism to deal with life stressors. It often involves overeating or consuming high-calorie foods to mask underlying emotions such as sadness, stress, or grief. Common triggers include work-related stress, family or relational challenges, and major life changes. Emotional eating can negatively impact health due to increased consumption of food when the body is not physically hungry. This behavior can also lead to additional emotional distress, causing feelings of shame and a lack of control and, in some cases, can escalate into an eating disorder, such as binge eating disorder.

How do I stop emotional eating?

The most effective way to sustainably stop emotional eating is by addressing the underlying stressors that drive this behavior. Individuals with a history of emotional eating might feel inclined to cut calories following episodes of overeating. However, maintaining adequate food intake throughout the day can help prevent emotional eating, which often occurs at night and can be worsened by genuine hunger after periods of restriction. In addition to ensuring proper nutrition, behavioral interventions can be highly beneficial. Techniques such as distraction and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) exercises can help individuals manage and reduce unwanted emotional eating behaviors.

How does emotional eating impact nutrition?

When individuals emotionally eat, they often turn to highly palatable, high-calorie foods, commonly known as "comfort foods," which provide temporary relief from stress. These foods are typically high in sugar and fat, and their regular consumption can negatively affect diet quality and lead to health issues, such as excessive weight gain. Moreover, the high stress levels that contribute to emotional eating can also lead to other unhealthy lifestyle behaviors, such as lack of exercise or excessive alcohol consumption, further compromising overall health and the ability to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

How can a dietitian help someone with emotional eating?

Dietitians can play a crucial role in helping individuals who struggle with emotional eating. They can help clients identify patterns in their behavior, such as specific triggers and times when they are most likely to engage in emotional eating. By helping clients understand these patterns, dietitians can develop personalized strategies for clients to reduce their urge to eat in response to emotions. For example, they can create structured meal plans that promote regular eating habits and provide balanced nutrition. In addition, dietitians can collaborate with therapists to address the underlying emotional and psychological factors contributing to emotional eating. This holistic approach ensures that both the mental health and nutritional aspects of the issue are addressed simultaneously.
