Eating Disorder Treatment
Are you concerned that you may have an eating disorder? According to ANAD, eating disorders impact up to 9% of the population worldwide and are the second deadliest of all mental illnesses.
A few symptoms that may be associated with an eating disorder may include, but are not limited to:
Preoccupation with food, weight, and calories
Extreme concern with body weight, shape and size
Feelings of disgust, guilt or shame after eating
Low self esteem and or identity based upon weight and size
Difficulty expressing, identifying and tolerating emotions
Treatment for eating disorders is complex and should be conducted in a team format that includes a therapist, a medical professional, a registered dietitian and a psychiatric provider that have specialized training in The HAES approach.
