How To Help Your Child Navigate Body Image, Eating, and Mental Health

Help your child navigate body image, eating, and mental health. Every parent wants to give their child the best shot at thriving—emotionally, mentally, and physically. But transitions like starting middle school, high school, or college can be incredibly vulnerable times for kids. They’re facing new environments, social pressures, and changes in their bodies, and for many, this can trigger struggles with body image, disordered eating, or even eating disorders. The numbers speak for themselves:👉 More than 1 in 5 boys and men in the U.S. and Canada meet the criteria for an eating disorder. And those are just the ones we know about. That’s why I’m offering a series of free online workshops for parents—designed to support you in spotting early signs, starting conversations without shame or panic, and building a home environment that helps your child feel confident, supported, and resilient. đź§  Featured Workshop: Help your child navigate body image eating & mental health Watchful, Not Worried: Helping Your Child Navigate Body Image, Eating, and Mental Health For parents of rising 6th gradersđź“… May 13, 2025đź•• 6:00 PM PTđź’» Online & Free This workshop focuses on the middle school transition—a stage that often flies under the radar but is deeply important in shaping lifelong attitudes about food, body, and self-worth.

Balanced Eating: A Healthier Approach to Nutrition and Well-Being

My philosophy toward nutrition aligns with creating a balanced approach to eating. By refraining from categorizing foods as strictly “good” or “bad,” we foster a healthier relationship with food. Instead, we can refer to less nutrient-dense foods as “sometimes foods.” This shift in language helps to normalize all food choices and lessens the emotional weight associated with them. It encourages individuals to view eating as a source of nourishment and enjoyment rather than a source of guilt or anxiety. By developing this mindset, we can significantly reduce the risk of disordered eating and support a more positive body image. Ultimately, it’s about cultivating resilience and understanding that nutrition is just one aspect of our overall well-being.
