Elise Howell: Eating Disorders and Codependency

In this episode, Kim Interviews therapist Elsie Howell and discusses different types of therapy for Eating Disorders and Codependency. This episode will help all of us to reconnect with ourselves so that we can become whole.

Elise collaborates with adults and teen girls (11+) in their journeys with anxiety, trauma, disordered eating, grief and loss, identity development, life transitions, body dissatisfaction, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and chronic health concerns.

She is passionate about helping teen girls and their families navigate the unpredictable years of adolescence and supporting women to cultivate healthy relationships with their authentic selves. Elise also enjoys working with individuals seeking to understand painful relational patterns and establish peace and boundaries in the present. She supports parents of teens/pre-teens in building skills to coach and connect with their children in tough emotional moments and to foster confidence and independence in their child.

Elise’s approach to therapy is holistic and relational, informed by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She uses Internal Family Systems Therapy and EMDR to support clients to heal from acute and chronic trauma. Elise also provides ERP for clients seeking to overcome anxiety, OCD, and disordered eating patterns. She incorporates creative activities and spirituality into therapy when desired by the client.
