Yes, to a degree. 

Fears around food in general and some particular foods, emotional attraction to certain foods, vulnerability to binge foods,  issues regarding "safe" and "unsafe" foods are certainly addressed. 

Basics of nutrition and healthy eating are discussed. 

Joanna supports the process of working with an eating disorder knowledgable nutritionist when the client is ready, willing and able to explore specific food plans and healthful styles of eating.

Too little or too much exercise is addressed and explored in therapy work with Joanna. Finding a healthy balance for emotional and physical needs for exercise is one of the goals of recovery work.

Finding ways to be kind to your body, giving your body what it needs and not making harsh demands of it is an ongoing theme in therapy that eventually can be resolved.
