What are Eating Disorders?
Eating disorders are serious mental health disorders characterized by abnormal eating behaviors and attitudes toward weight and food. They often involve intense preoccupation with food, body weight, and shape, and can lead to severe health problems if untreated.

Therapists are skilled at addressing a range of eating disorders, such as:
- Anorexia nervosa: Characterized by extreme weight loss due to severe food restriction
- Bulimia nervosa: Involves repeated episodes of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviors such as vomiting or over-exercising
- Binge eating disorder: Characterized by recurrent episodes of excessive eating
- Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID): Involves avoiding or restricting food intake but without concern about body shape or weight
The Benefits of Eating Disorder Therapy
Eating disorder therapy can offer numerous benefits, including:
- Development of a healthier relationship with food and body image
- Improved physical health and nutrition
- Enhanced emotional well-being and self-esteem
- Better stress and anxiety management skills
- Support and guidance during recovery
Eating Disorder Therapy Techniques
Eating disorder therapists may use a variety of evidence-based techniques, often tailored to suit each individual’s unique needs and goals. Some common eating disorder therapy techniques include:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): Aims to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors related to food, weight, and body image.
