Episode 96: Reparenting with Special Guest Marcella Cox

Reparenting is the action of taking care of the small child within all of us who has feelings and needs. Many times, the pain beneath the struggle with food and weight is linked to emotional needs that weren’t met while we were children. This is understandable since it is impossible for a parent to meet every emotional need a child experience. However, as an adult, we can learn to meet our own needs and be our own parent. We do the by being compassionate, loving, attentive, and responsible to ourselves.Marcella Cox LMFT, CEDS-SMarcella Cox is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in treating eating disorders in the San Francisco Bay Area and is the Founder of Kindful Body, a collaboration of seasoned eating disorder professionals who provide online therapy and nutrition counseling throughout California.
