Benefits of Online Therapy in California!
Often if you are a busy professional, high achiever, young adult or older teen, it can be challenging to find space and time for yourself. Even though we know we need support, it can seem impossible to find. However, with the ease of online therapy, you can begin to find space for yourself with greater accessibility and ease of service. Here are some common reasons to seek online therapy.
Accessibility, especially if you are in a rural area and need specific support. Online therapy makes this easier regardless of where you are.
Privacy, as providers like Kindful Body use a HIPAA compliant platform, and confidentiality is key. If you are unsure whether you are ready for eating disorder treatment for fear of being judged by others, online counseling can reduce possible stigma when done from the privacy of your home.

Eating Disorder Counseling
Wanting to improve ourselves is a natural desire in this day and age. However, hating that you do not look a certain way or feeling like you must eat or dress a certain way to be accepted is toxic. You are more than a size of clothing or how an Instagram model makes you feel. If you find that you are going through eating restrictions, binges, and yo-yo diets, beginning eating disorder treatment can help.
Emotional Eating Recovery
Emotional eating is more common than you know, however, it can become an impossible cycle when you cannot control it. Especially when life is not getting any easier and it is the only tool that temporarily works. If you are looking to develop healthier coping strategies to navigate life's stressors and find healing, then emotional eating recovery may be for you.
Binge Eating Therapy
Struggling with binge eating is a journey of its own. With it comes to shame, guilt, frustration, and anger. Oftentimes binge eating has its underlying causes. If you are looking to end compulsive overeating, binge eating therapy and nutrition counseling may be right for you.
Eating Disorder Support for College Students
College is a whole different ballpark when it comes to responsibilities and demands. Students are bogged down with work, dealing with roommates, discovering themselves as adults, and truly learning to care for themselves. On top of that, the stigma to fit in and look a certain way is higher. Whether your eating disorder started from the demand of eating healthy and exercising to reduce stress, or it was caused by trauma in your early years, our specialists can help you find balance.
Eating Disorder Support for Teens
Eating disorders can start at an early age. In the teenage years, there are a lot of pressures to fit in and become like the majority. Plus being a teen means that there are a lot of media influences that tell you how you “should” be. It can be exhausting and lead to unhealthy coping behaviors as a result. If you notice your teen is having a tough time, finding peace and self-compassion with themselves, then try eating disorder treatment for adolescents.
PTSD Treatment and Trauma Therapy
Trauma creates long-term issues if it’s not addressed. We know those big T traumas such as death, injury, or abuse can create a lifelong downward spiral without the proper support. Likewise, little t trauma also known as complex trauma can be harder to recognize. Especially if things that appear small have been normalized over time. If you’ve experienced trauma, get the support you need with PTSD treatment and trauma therapy.
Anxiety Treatment and Stress Therapy
Anxiety and stress can bring down your confidence in an instant. Finding the strength to combat negative thoughts and ruminations takes time and practice. Sometimes that even means finding the right coping skills, other times it may mean taking a deeper dive and looking at larger issues effecting your life. If you are stressed with lofty expectations, limiting beliefs, work, or school stress, let us help with anxiety treatment!
Therapy for Low-Self Esteem
Listening to your inner critic gets exhausting, doesn’t it? Do you long for a day when the person you desire to become is you? If you are ready to stop worrying and feeling like a fraud, therapy can help. Tell your harsh inner critic the truth and begin healing from the past. If you would not say some of these things to others, why do you deserve to believe them? Try therapy for self-esteem.
Therapy for Relationship Issues
Relationships come in all shapes and sizes. However, there is no manual to figure out how to handle every issue that may arise. If you and your partner are looking for support and a deeper connection, couples therapy can help. Here we can provide a safe space to understand both sides to compromise and balance the needs of each partner. See if therapy for relationships can help!
