Disordered Eating Podcast

 

 

Each week we explore the deeper meaning of our relationship with food and our body. I interview experts in the field of eating disorders and psychoanalysis to bring you the answers about why you do the things you do and bring you one step closer to a healthier relationship with food and yourself.  

Eating Disorders and the Mind/Body Disconnect with Danielle Novack, Ph.D

Dr. Danielle Novack is a pioneer in the world of psychoanalysis and eating disorders. She’s the one who writes the papers I use for myself. She has a profound way of understanding one’s relationship with food and is sharing some of that with us here.

If you’re into unconscious processes, this is your episode. Danielle talks about the topic of dissociation, how it happens, why it happens, and how it comes out throughout our lives. We break down how we see the mind-body disconnect in various ED symptoms. And most importantly, we identify how in the world a person can work through it.

A bit more about her: Dr. Danielle Novack is a clinical psychologist in private practice in Manhattan. She has over 20 years of experience working with eating disorders and concerns related to food, weight and body image. She has written scholarly articles and chapters on the psychoanalytic treatment of eating disorders, and she serves as a clinical supervisor for psychology doctoral students. Dr. Novack is currently completing her psychoanalytic training at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis.
