Eating Disorders Counseling

Living with an eating disorder can feel like being caught in a never-ending cycle of guilt, shame, and perfectionism. Eating disorders are mental illnesses that cause people to have obsessive thoughts or maladaptive ideas about eating or body image. There are several different types of eating disorders including anorexia nervosa, binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, and avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). Living with an eating disorder can be overwhelming, but recognizing the signs is the first step toward the journey to feeling better.
