Non-diet & weight-inclusive
We do not prescribe meal plans, weight goals, or rules about “good” and “bad” foods. Our work treats every body as worthy of care and respect.
Eating Recovery
Eating challenges are more than just about food
Struggles with food and body image rarely begin at the dinner table. They can be tangled up with anxiety, perfectionism, grief, trauma, self-worth, and the pressure to look a certain way in a world full of diet noise. We offer compassionate, whole-person support—without weigh-ins, food rules, or judgment—in our Denver office and online across Colorado.
More Than Food
When food takes up more space than it should
Maybe you think about food constantly—what you ate, what you will eat, or what you “should not” have eaten. Maybe a mirror, photo, or fitting room can undo an entire day. Eating challenges can look like restricting and overeating, rigid rules, guilt after meals, exercising to “earn” food, avoiding social plans, or measuring your worth against a number.
However it shows up, it is real and exhausting. You do not have to wait until it feels “bad enough” to ask for help. Therapy can help you make more room for the relationships, values, and experiences that matter to you.

A compassionate foundation for recovery
Whole-person care
Food struggles can connect with anxiety, trauma, grief, perfectionism, self-worth, and relationships. Therapy makes room for all of you—not only what is on your plate.
At your pace
Whether you are questioning your relationship with food for the first time or continuing a longer recovery journey, we begin where you feel ready.
Comfort built in
When it supports your goals, Lola, our certified professional therapy dog, may join in-person sessions. Graham, who is still in training, joins only select sessions under supervision.
Our Approach
Compassion first, always
Eating recovery is personal, so therapy is tailored rather than scripted. Depending on your goals, your therapist may draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), narrative therapy, and somatic approaches. Together, you can examine the beliefs diet culture handed you, practice self-compassion, and build coping skills for moments when food or body concerns feel overwhelming.
Meet Our TherapistsA Flexible Toolbox
Approaches we may bring into the room
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
Notice the thought patterns, rigid rules, and cycles of self-criticism that can keep food and body concerns feeling stuck, then practice more flexible responses.
Acceptance & commitment therapy (ACT)
Build space around difficult thoughts and feelings while reconnecting with your values and the parts of life you want to move toward.
Narrative therapy
Examine the stories diet culture, past experiences, and relationships may have handed you—and make room for a story that is more fully your own.
Somatic approaches
Use grounding, body awareness, and nervous-system support to notice what is happening with curiosity and respond with greater care.
Our History in This Work
Body Harmony: Embrace, Empower, Evolve
Lola & Me Therapy has previously led Body Harmony, a therapy group focused on body image, self-comparison, and appearance-related anxiety. That program history continues to inform the compassionate, non-diet lens we bring to individual eating-recovery work today.
Body Harmony is shared here as practice history and is not being presented as a currently enrolling group.

Frequently asked questions
I’m not sure my struggles are “serious enough” for therapy. Should I still reach out?
Yes. You do not need a diagnosis—or a crisis—to deserve support. If thoughts about food or your body are taking up more space than you would like, that is reason enough to talk with someone. A free 15-minute consultation is a low-pressure way to begin and determine whether outpatient therapy is an appropriate fit.
Will you put me on a diet or meal plan?
No. We are therapists, not dietitians, and our approach is non-diet and weight-inclusive. Therapy focuses on the thoughts, emotions, relationships, and experiences connected to food and body image. If nutritional support would be helpful, we are glad to coordinate with a registered dietitian of your choosing, with your written permission.
Where will we meet for therapy? How does telehealth work?
Sessions may be available in person at our Denver Highlands office or online anywhere in Colorado. For telehealth, we use SimplePractice and send a secure link to your phone or email. During consultation, we will discuss your needs and whether in-person or online outpatient care is a good fit.
Do you accept my insurance?
We do not bill insurance directly. We can provide a superbill for possible out-of-network reimbursement, and Mentaya can assist with claim submission. We also accept HSA payments. Eligibility and reimbursement are determined by your plan.
How long are sessions?
Standard sessions are 50 minutes, with an optional 30-minute add-on available for an additional fee. Frequency is decided with your therapist based on your goals, needs, and level of care.
