Processed
Food Addiction Therapy

and general counselling services

We treat the chronic malady of processed food addiction and comorbid substances (nicotine, alcohol) which is similar to treating other addiction diseases such as alcoholism and drug addiction. Our counselling and advisory services cover a wide range of areas to those that have been affected by the malady of addiction, which is a multi-faceted disease, wreaking disharmony, chaos, disunity and misunderstanding among family, friends, work colleagues and communities alike. This may include relationship, grief, and or general counselling services to help with life manageability (post addiction treatment), motivation, conflict resolution, emotional concerns, and or other personal issues.

DENIAL – ‘Don’t Even kNow I Am Lying’

How do I know that I may be succumbing to a malady known as addiction, or is it just in my imagination, that is I’m making too big a deal out of it? Perhaps I may have had a dysfunctional upbringing or home life? I feel I can be addicted to anything. Is it just my personality? Do I have one or multiple addictions? Perhaps do a bit of ‘coke’ to help burn off the calories from the last binge and to help control my depression. How many times have I put the ciggies down, then eventually I go back to smoking because it controls my weight for now. This is actually swapping the witch for the bitch (one substance for another) as you see fit.

Addiction is likened to Cancer – meaning it is also a consumer of mind and body – and yet it is a very hidden, secretive disease. Indeed, it is often hidden under the disease of DENIAL and the addicted person is usually the last one to find out.

The acronym ‘Don’t Even kNow I Am Lying’ (D.E.N.I.A.L.) says it in a nutshell. Most people suffering from a substance use disorder (SUD) including processed food addiction are not “bad people trying to get good, they are just sick people trying to get well.”

Karren-Lee is the clinical director of Karren-lee-Addictionology® and is the only known clinician and researcher globally for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of processed food addiction.

If you are in doubt, have any questions, or a looking for some hope that you can get well from the disease of addiction, please don’t hesitate to give Karren-lee a call. You will be pleasantly surprised to receive a friendly voice on the other end of the phone, text or email no matter where you are in the world.
