In this webinar, we will explore the deep and often complex interplay between trauma and eating disorders, looking beyond behaviors to understand the symbolic language these struggles speak. We’ll discuss how eating disorders can serve as expressions of unresolved trauma—ways the body and mind attempt to protect, cope, or find control—and what it means to repair those wounds.
Together, we’ll define trauma and eating disorders through a relational and somatic lens, unpack the deeper meanings these patterns may hold in our clients’ lives, and offer a map for healing that honors both their pain and resilience. Through this exploration, we aim to foster a compassionate, trauma-informed understanding of eating disorders and illuminate what healing can truly look like.
