How To Stop Over Eating

No, you do not need a referral to book your initial consultation. You can access binge eating support immediately. However, if you wish to claim Medicare rebates, you will need an Eating Disorder Management Plan (EDP) from your GP. We can guide you through this process during your first session.

Under an Eating Disorder Management Plan (EDP), eligible patients can access up to 20 rebated sessions per calendar year with an accredited dietitian. We use HICAPS and Medicare Easyclaim to process your rebate instantly after your session, with funds back in your account within 24–48 hours.

An accredited dietitian helps you understand the biological and emotional patterns driving binge eating. We work on stabilising your eating patterns, addressing restrictive behaviours that fuel binge urges, and developing practical strategies to manage triggers — without dieting or deprivation.

Night-time binge eating is one of the most common patterns we see. It’s often driven by under-eating during the day, emotional triggers, or disrupted hunger cues. We help you identify what’s driving the night-time urges and build a structured eating pattern that reduces them.

Overeating is eating past fullness occasionally — like at a holiday meal. Binge eating disorder involves recurrent episodes with a sense of loss of control, often followed by shame, guilt, or distress. If overeating feels compulsive and is affecting your wellbeing, it may be binge eating disorder.

Yes. Emotional and stress eating are common triggers for binge eating episodes. When food becomes a way to manage difficult emotions, it can develop into a recurring pattern. We help you understand your emotional triggers and build alternative coping strategies alongside stabilising your eating patterns.

Yes. Binge eating and alcohol often go hand in hand — alcohol can lower inhibitions and disrupt hunger signals, making binge urges stronger. We address both patterns together and can coordinate with other health professionals if needed.
