SoHo, NYC Anorexia Therapy & Hypnosis: Eating Disorder Treatment Announced

Jan 25, 2024

NY Health Hypnosis & Integrative Therapy (646-537-1713) announces its integrative approach to the treatment of eating disorders, combining traditional therapy and advanced hypnosis techniques to help clients build a healthy relationship with food.

New Yorkers struggling with emotional eating, binge eating, anorexia, bulimia, or ARFID, can now benefit from an individualized, person-centered approach to treatment that integrates hypnosis with traditional therapeutic techniques, such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and EMDR. The goal of the newly announced treatment is to address the thought patterns and past trauma that are affecting the present and leading to the cycle of binging, shame, and restriction.

The announcement comes in response to the growing prevalence of eating disorders in the United States, with approximately 24 million people affected, according to the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders. NY Health Hypnosis & Integrative Therapy emphasizes that hypnosis is most effective in the treatment of eating disorders when it is performed by a mental health expert and complements therapy.

“Hypnosis can help clients let go of unwanted habits, encourage positive thinking, and provide relief from a variety of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and eating disorders,” says a representative for the clinic. “The goal is not just to help clients end these behaviors, but also to stop viewing food in terms of good and bad in order to end the cycle of overindulging and self-blame.”

The team explains that the state of deep relaxation and heightened awareness that is achieved during a hypnosis session allows the therapist to identify psychological factors that lead to unhealthy eating patterns, reframe negative thought patterns associated with food and body image, and help the client build coping strategies.

The center’s clinical psychologists - Dr. Karolina Pekala, Dr. Laura Faiwiszewski, and Dr. Demi Maglio - specialize in the treatment of eating disorders in adults, teenagers, and children. Offering clients a safe space to explore their struggles, they use cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and analytic therapy techniques, in addition to hypnosis, to help them resolve internal conflicts and build a healthy relationship with food. An individual treatment plan is created for every client, employing a combination of techniques that will be the most effective for the issues they are experiencing.

“Struggling with our relationships with food can be one of the most difficult and all-consuming challenges a person can face today,” the representative adds. “Restoring balance with food and weight can have a greater impact than anything else in life, because food is a vital part of everyday living and because overcoming this struggle frees up emotional space.”

NY Health Hypnosis & Integrative Therapy typically recommends weekly or bi-weekly therapy sessions, however, some clients may require more frequent appointments. Sessions can be scheduled on the center’s website, and can take place at the SoHo clinic or online.
