I am a somatic psychotherapist and mind-body eating coach working in private practice, helping women with food and body issues among other things.

Right now I am creating a course designed to help women break free from the cycle of binge eating and develop a balanced relationship with food and their bodies.

I’m looking to connect with 10 women in their 40s and 50s who have experience of binge eating for a 30-minute 1:1 interview.

This will help develop the course and make sure I'm meeting people's needs. Real-life experiences, challenges, and insights will play a vital role in shaping this program.

There's no obligation to sign up for the course, however, to thank you for your time, you'll receive a discount on the course when it launches.

If this sounds like something you'd like to be part of - or if you know someone who might be interested - please respond to this post or reach out at [email protected]. I look forward to connecting with you.

Warm Regards
Nikki
Looking forward to meeting you!
