About me

Hello, Iโ€™m Gemma

Yes, I look happy in this picture. It wasn't always that way.

I binged for nearly three decades. I know what it's like to feel stuck and obsessed with food. I shared this struggle.

There is a way through.

Maybe you see a little of yourself here

  • Desperately wanting to eat normally ... but the binges keep sneaking back in
  • Craving energy and passion โ€ฆ but trapped in fatigue and crushing low moods
  • Longing to love your body โ€ฆ but hating it as it is right now
  • Dreaming of stopping bingeing โ€ฆ but not sure if you ever will

Deep inside, you know there's something more waiting for you.

Whatever you've tried,
I've probably been there too.

Yet nothing worked for long.

These are some of the places I looked ... some helped, some didn't.

  • Diet clubs to addiction groups

  • Running to smoking to alcohol

  • Macro plans to gut microbiome capsules

  • Science books to meditation apps

  • CBT to aromatherapy to hypnotherapy

  • More qualifications to trying to ignore the whole mess

I understand the disappointment and pain. And also that glimmer of hope that's never quite extinguished.

The glimmer of hope that brought you here.

A combination of life coaching and IFS (Internal Family Systems) was my way out of bingeing. Mistrust and self-doubt opened to possibility, healing and lasting change.

Now I work with other women so they can stop bingeing too.

Uncover your life beyond bingeing.

There is a way through.

You're not alone.
