My Life as an Eating Psychology Coach: Gerda Bruwer

What made you want to become an Eating Psychology Coach?

I am passionate about empowering women to heal the relationship between emotional body and food. I am 30kg less because I used mind body nutrition to swap my internal war for a life of freedom. Today I am grateful for how my own hurts and setbacks helped me reach my full potential in this world. It is through healing my own food, emotional, and body challenges that I can help others today. As an Eating Psychology Coach, I get to make a real difference by helping others through their struggles so they can realize their dreams in this world. It is a privilege to live my life with that much purpose.

What does your practice look like?

In my practice, I work with clients (male & female) in person or on Skype. I also coach women’s groups and corporate groups that meet weekly to explore and heal their issues with body and food. I do talks whenever I’m invited as speaker. I work with addictions and behavioural problems. My speciality is mind body connection, eating psychology, nutrition, healing the emotional body, and using the subconscious mind to facilitate lasting change. My approach is not only physical transformation, but emotional and mental transformation as well.

How did your education at the Institute prepare you to work successfully with clients?

As someone who already worked with clients, I can honestly say that my studies at the Institute took my work to a whole new level of success and understanding like never before.

What was your favorite aspect of the Training?

Everything on offer at the Institute for the Psychology of Eating is a highlight! They continue to deliver and insightful, intelligent Training in a world that’s starving for true answers. What they offer is unique, and I’m eternally grateful for finding Marc David and the Institute. One day I’d love to still attend the live event.

How has being an Eating Psychology Coach impacted your professional life/financial well-being?

Knowing some stuff through your own understanding is one thing. Being qualified to offer learned opinions is quite another. In my work as a Certified Eating Psychology Coach, my professional life keeps increasing as one satisfied client tells another. The confidence gained from my qualifications and seeing real results with clients – priceless.

How has being an Eating Psychology Coach impacted you personally?

Through my work, my life is finally driven by my soul purpose, everything in my life is better because of that.

What do you see for yourself in your future as an Eating Psychology Coach – where is your work evolving towards?

Working more and more with larger groups, coaching them to wellness. And who knows, maybe one day I’ll write that book that so many clients keep asking about.

Why would you recommend the Training to others?

There is no training around weight and its loss, that is more thorough, ground-breaking and getting to real solutions, than the Institute for the Psychology of Eating.
