Binge Eating Disorder Recovery & Trauma Healing
Developmental Trauma
According to Healing Our Core Issues Institute, developmental trauma is the emotional, physical, sexual, intellectual, spiritual, or neglect abuse a person has experienced from birth until age twenty-five.
It also states that abuse can affect people in various dysfunctional ways, whether it comes from your family of origin or others beyond the home. Early experiences like these impact relationships later in life, and the pervasive patterns are still dysfunctional.
The institute also said that a developmental and relational trauma concept called "healing our core difficulties" is predicated on the notion that people that have endured suffering in their lives are capable of finding relief, healing, and joy once more

Growing up in your Family
Did you feel valued? Did you feel protected?Did you learn that it was ok to make mistakes?Were your needs and wants taking into consideration?Were you allowed to be a kid?
During counseling, we will show how a dysfunctional upbringing causes developmental immaturity, which might obstruct the quest for a healthy, balanced adult life. The term "functional adult" was coined by author and well-known trauma expert Pia Mellody to describe a state of emotional maturity.
Guiding You to Be a Functional Adult
Together, we will discover helpful daily routines that encourage living from your most functional adult self. These techniques serve as your reparenting road map. We live in action rather than reaction when we are our functional adult selves.
Core Practices of Reparenting:
- Loving Ourselves and Claiming Our Self-Worth (Affirming)
- Protecting Ourselves With External and Internal Boundaries (Protecting Ourselves)
- Knowing Ourselves by Creating a Sense of Self
- Taking Care of Our Needs and Wants and Establishing Interdependence with Others (Nurturing)
- Moderating or Containing Ourselves, Especially in Relationships with Others (Setting Limits)
- Connecting self with others (Relational)
