Silencing Food Noise and Sugar Addiction with Vanessa Kredler

Today I’m joined by Vanessa Kredler, a Sydney-based Counsellor and Psychotherapist who specialises in helping adults recover from food and sugar addiction, disordered eating, trauma, and other addictive behaviours.


Vanessa combines her own lived experience with clinical expertise to guide people towards lasting recovery.


In this conversation, Vanessa answers all your burning questions about food addiction, including:

  • What actually creates food addiction

  • Why so many people switch to sugar after going sober

  • How to stop the relentless food noise

    • How to finally break the cycle of food addiction
    • …and so much more.


    If you’ve ever wondered whether sugar is your “new addiction” or you’re curious about how to find freedom from food obsession, this episode is for you.
