I believe what I see underneath that addiction is severe and significant trauma, and that's what we have to address, because I don't believe we treat trauma right here in our country.
Ever wondered why you reach for that extra slice of cake when you're feeling down? In this episode of The Addiction Files, Drs. Darlene Petersen and Paula Cook sit down with Wendi Francis, a food psychology expert, to unravel the mysteries behind emotional overeating. Francis, a best-selling author and host of the podcast 'Overcoming Emotional Overeating', sheds light on how our emotional baggage can drive us to seek solace in food.
It's not just about what you eat; it's about why you're eating it. The discussion dives deep into how trauma often sits at the heart of food addiction and cross addiction, revealing that healing begins when we address these underlying issues. Darlene and Paula bring their clinical expertise to the table, sharing practical tips and best practices for treating emotional overeating. They emphasize moving away from labeling patients and instead focusing on individualized care.
If you're struggling with emotional eating or know someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable advice to start the journey toward healing.
