Who this group is for

Many people feel stuck in a cycle with food they don’t fully understand, like standing in the kitchen at night, barely aware of how you got there. Or eating in response to stress, even when you don't want food.

In those moments, eating can feel automatic and hard to interrupt, followed by guilt or frustration.

You may have tried willpower, rules, or starting over, but nothing seems to last. You may feel a desire to be more at peace with food and more supported in stressful moments.

In this workshop, you will learn a simple, guided writing practice to you them pause, listen inward, and respond to yourself with care instead of judgment.

What to expect

May 18th, 5-7pm PST
This workshop offers a gentle, experiential introduction to a compassionate writing practice for emotional eating. Participants can expect guided exercises, practical tools, and a supportive, non-judgmental space. This is not about fixing or eliminating emotional eating, but about learning to respond to yourself with more understanding and care. It is appropriate for all levels. Whether Self-Compassion is brand new to you, or something you’ve been working on for a while.

Erica ThomasLMFT Eating Coach

While I’m a licensed therapist, this workshop is not therapy but a space to learn and practice new tools for relating to yourself with more care.

I’m Erica Thomas, LMFT, and I specialize in helping people heal their relationship with food through self-compassion. In my work, I support people in understanding what’s beneath emotional eating and in finding more compassionate, sustainable ways of coping. My approach is gentle, practical, and grounded in real-life moments.
