Felicity Tsikiwa is an architect of human-centered systems, tending the deeper landscapes of mental health through clinical care, speaking, and the written word.
Body paragraphs to come — Felicity will draft these in a follow-up session.
“How do you treat the mind without ignoring the body that holds it?”
A book about the neurobiology of binge eating disorder.
Written for the high-functioning adult who has tried everything and been told the failure was hers. Reward dysregulation, executive function deficits, emotion regulation gaps, overcontrolled restraint. The chemistry the literature has known about for years and the clinic has been slow to name.
Twenty years of watching this disorder unfold from the inside and the outside. A book to put the language of modern neuroscience directly into the reader's hands. It is not a collapse of willpower; it is a nervous system begging for regulation. Healing cannot happen in an environment constructed entirely out of shame.
