EAting Disorders
The most commonly known eating disorders are: anorexia (AN), bulimia (BN), avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), and binge eating disorder(BED). Often times, before someone realizes they have an eating disorder, they notice that their relationship or view of food is different than most other people’s they know. It can start with something as benign as labeling food as good and bad or healthy and unhealthy and soon turn into this part of your life that has exerted control over most other aspects.Treatment for an eating disorder can mean life or death and regardless of how long you or your loved one has been struggling with eating or body image and it should be taken seriously.
When supporting a person or family who is struggling with an eating disorder, we only use evidence based practices to begin identifying the contributing factors for the onset and maintenance of the eating disorder. We employ the help of a dietitian, physician, and psychiatrist when needed and believe that full recovery is possible!
