Anxiety & Eating Disorder Therapy That Helps You
Let’s go from
Staring into the open fridge for the fifth time today, negotiating what you are “allowed” to eat → Grabbing a snack without spiraling and getting back to your life
Replaying that one sentence you said three days ago and cringing
→ Trusting that you can be human and still be okay
Avoiding situations where food feels unpredictable
→ Showing up fully, even when things are not perfectly planned
Living by rigid rules you secretly resent
→ Building a life guided by values instead of fear
Your brain writing fan fiction about worst-case scenarios
→ Letting thoughts be background noise
Googling symptoms at midnight
→ Sleeping through the night
You do not have to give up ambition, discipline, or drive.
You just do not have to suffer for them anymore.

Meet Beatrice Pacyga, LCSW
Eating Disorder & Anxiety Therapist in Chicago, Illinois
Virtual Therapy Available in Illinois & Indiana
Hi, I’m Beatrice! I created Always Blooming Counseling PLLC to help teens and young adults untangle themselves from eating disorders, chronic dieting, anxiety, and OCD. If your brain never seems to shut off or food feels like a full-time job, you are in the right place. Therapy with me is values-driven and practical, so you can spend less time obsessing, spiraling, or starting over and more time actually living your life.
This work is personal to me because I care deeply about helping capable, driven young people stop shrinking their lives around fear. I have seen how high-functioning suffering gets overlooked, how you can be successful on paper and still feel anxious, rigid, or stuck inside. I am passionate about helping you break patterns that feel permanent and build real momentum toward change before burnout becomes the norm.
I believe you can build a values-based life rooted in confidence, resilience, and self-trust. A life that feels expansive and aligned, not restricted by anxiety or the pressure to hold it all together.
