Radically Open Toronto is the first Toronto-based practice serving eating disorders and specializing in Radically Open Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. Is your self-control out of control? Do you want to let go of your eating disorder, but struggle with strict expectations for yourself? Did you get lost in the details? Do you take things too seriously? If so, you might be experiencing maladaptive overcontrol. In my practice, I help people accept and appreciate their perfectionistic tendencies, deepen their connections to others, let go, learn to have fun, and take life a little less seriously.
At Radically Open Toronto, we believe that we're better together! If you've had previous experience with standard DBT, you may have been told that you're doing the best you can, AND you need to do better. If you're overcontrolled, this message might be invalidating, and you might actually need to learn to let go, connect, have fun, and not be so serious.
I can help you learn to recognize when you're overcontrol is helping you and where it might be causing you problems. If you feel like things needs to be a certain way or you feel like there's no hope, I encourage you that these are states of mind that we sometimes get ourselves into. I do my best to attend to your unique needs, and we'll even have some fun!
