Overcome Food and Body Struggles

achieve freedom and ease.

Well Supported is boutique mental health practice specializing in disordered eating and body image challenges.

About Me, Katherine Tague:

Hey! I’m a therapist who specializes in supporting teens and adults struggling with disordered eating, anxiety, and body image challenges (think: restricting food, overeating, negative self-talk and complex feelings that come with food struggles).

Alongside conventional therapeutic approaches (like CBT, DBT, and IFS), I have additional training in metabolic therapies and take a whole-body approach to mental health.

My work isn’t just about changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors — it’s about integrating lifestyle strategies that support brain health and overall wellbeing.

Together, we’ll build a kinder relationship with food and and create sustainable change that feels empowering.

Why You’re Here:

Lately, things just haven’t felt that easy. Every morning, you tell yourself, “Today, I’m going to eat normally.” You start the day with good intentions, hoping this will be the day you finally get control.

But then stress starts to pile up — deadlines, family stuff, endless to-do lists. You keep pushing through, holding onto that promise you made.

But when the house is finally quiet and you’re alone with your thoughts, the urges hit hard. In the quiet time of being alone you binge, or purge, or make a plan to begin restricting food again the next day.

It’s an exhausting cycle that feels impossible to break. You might feel guilty or ashamed afterward, like you’re the only one dealing with this. But you’re definitely not alone.

The good news? It doesn’t have to be this way.

In therapy, you’ll learn to understand what’s really behind those urges — whether it’s stress, emotions, or something deeper — and get tools to finally break the cycle.

We’ll work together to build a healthier, kinder relationship with food, your body, and yourself — so you can actually stick to those good intentions and feel better every day.

Who I Work With: Restrictive Eating Disorders

Emma, age 20

stressed out

Emma struggles with late-night binge episodes, especially during exam weeks. She often tells herself she just needs to "stay in control," but stress and exhaustion quickly take over. She feels ashamed and isolated, worried that her roommates or friends might notice her secret struggle. Professors say she’s “capable,” but Emma battles intense guilt when she binges, leaving her feeling like she’s failing herself.

grace, age 15

perfectionist

Grace gets good grades and keeps a color-coded planner. But inside, she feels like she’s always one slip-up away from everything falling apart. Restriction helps her feel calm and in control, like she’s doing something right. She tells herself she’s just being “disciplined,” but her world shrinks around the rules she’s made for herself. If she breaks them—even a little—she spirals into guilt and self-criticism.

Julia, age 22

lonely

Julia spends a lot of time feeling disconnected—from her friends, from her family, even from herself. She scrolls social media late at night, comparing her life to people who seem effortlessly happy. Restricting food has become a way to cope with the ache. It’s not about weight—it’s about control, and sometimes, punishment. When she eats less, it feels like she’s “doing something” about the sadness, proving she can be strong.

Who I Work With: Binge Eating & Compulsive Eating

Mark, age 35

busy new Dad

Mark juggles a demanding job and family life, often skipping meals or eating on the go. By the time he gets home, exhaustion and stress trigger late-night binges on snacks he doesn’t even enjoy. He feels frustrated with himself — knowing he “should just eat better” but unable to break the cycle. Mark worries his binge eating affects his mood and energy, but he’s unsure where to start making changes.

sophia, age 16

The dieter

Sofia has battled restrictive dieting for years, cycling between intense control and overwhelming binges. She often feels like she’s “ruined” her progress after one slip-up and beats herself up for lacking willpower. Despite trying to “fix” her eating, Sofia’s binges have increased alongside growing feelings of shame and anxiety. She longs for a balanced, peaceful relationship with food but doesn’t know how to get there.

David, age 60

recently retired

David’s binge eating started after retiring and moving away from his active lifestyle. Feelings of loneliness and boredom lead him to binge, often late at night when the house is quiet. He feels stuck in the cycle and worries about his health but struggles to find motivation or support. David wants to regain control and find new ways to cope, but feels unsure if therapy could really help.
