Has anyone had counselling for eating issues? How to select a therapist?

Hi,

I posted this in Chat but didn't get any responses so hope you don't mind me posting it again here.

I've got a long history of issues with food and have yo-yo dieted a lot. I'm getting some careers counselling at the moment and have found it helpful to talk out loud and get some independent advice.

How would I go about finding someone to do the same for me food-wise? I'm in Edinburgh if anyone happens to know someone.

Or should I just ask my GP? What is the waiting time likely to be?

Or is there a book that guides you through addressing your issues?

I'm very grateful for any and all suggestions.

Thank you all
