12. Larger Than The Ring Size

Rebecca Moravec is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in Denver, CO where she has been practicing therapy for over 10 years. She loves the Enneagram (She leads with an enneagram 2!) and is training to become a Certified Enneagram Practitioner through The Narrative Enneagram.  She's a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor which intersects with her work with clients healing from disordered eating. She is committed to fat-acceptance, and Health at Every Size, and to dismantling diet culture so that people may live deep and meaningful lives with authentic relationships with themselves and with others free from distraction and shame.

In this episode, Becca and Bri dive into Becca's experience of needing to have her wedding band cut from her finger when it no longer fit her. They talk about how the thin ideal affects our sense of belonging and our perception of failure and explore body grief, letting go of "thinness," and processing the feelings that arise when looking at old photos. Together they discuss how exposure therapy, along with reparenting, self-care, and holding onto meaningful relationships can help body grief to fade and allow us to live fuller lives. 

Becca co-hosts the Two Therapists in Therapy podcast with Sarah Brill. When she's not with clients, she is reading or snuggling with her partner, Chad, and their sweet dog, Pumpkin.
