If you’re struggling with binge eating, late night eating, or feeling out of control with eating, you are not alone — and you are not broken.
Many clients at Healing Stones Therapy come to us saying:
These experiences are not failures of willpower. They are often the result of diet culture, restriction, and a dysregulated nervous system.
As a specialized provider of eating disorder therapy in Wyoming, we help individuals move from shame and control toward stability, body neutrality, and healing.
Body neutrality removes moral judgment from your body.
Instead of:
“I feel fat.”
“I need to shrink.”
“My body is wrong.”
Body neutrality says:
“My body is a body.”
“My body deserves care.”
“I don’t have to love it to respect it.”
For individuals experiencing binge eating disorder, chronic overeating, or feeling out of control with food, body neutrality reduces shame — which is one of the biggest triggers for late night eating and binge cycles.
Diet culture teaches:

At Healing Stones Therapy, we use evidence-based approaches including CBT-E (Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) to stabilize eating patterns and reduce binge eating episodes within a structured 20–40 session framework.
When someone says, “I can’t stop eating,” we look deeper:
Many individuals struggling with binge eating in Wyoming have never had access to specialized outpatient eating disorder care. Without support, late night eating can become the only time the body feels safe. That’s why we integrate trauma-informed therapy and EMDR to address the root causes of eating behaviors — not just the symptoms. Healing isn’t about more control. It’s about nervous system safety.

Our approach focuses on:
You deserve support that goes beyond dieting advice.
Binge eating is often caused by a combination of chronic dieting, restriction, emotional stress, trauma, and nervous system dysregulation.
Late night eating often occurs when the body has been underfed, emotionally overwhelmed, or suppressing needs throughout the day.
“Feeling fat” is usually a placeholder for emotions such as shame, anxiety, sadness, or lack of control.
Yes. EMDR can help process underlying trauma that contributes to out of control eating behaviors.
