Eating Disorder Therapy in Atlanta
Heal your relationship with food and your body. Compassionate, evidence-based treatment that addresses the emotional roots of eating disorders.
Understanding Disordered Eating
Disordered eating encompasses a range of irregular eating behaviors that may or may not meet criteria for a clinical eating disorder diagnosis. This includes anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and other specified feeding or eating disorders (OSFED). It also includes subclinical patterns like chronic dieting, restrictive eating, obsessive food rules, and exercise compulsion.
Eating disorders are never simply about food or weight. They develop as coping mechanisms for difficult emotions, trauma, perfectionism, control needs, or feelings of inadequacy. Food behaviors become a way to manage anxiety, numb painful feelings, or gain a sense of control when other areas of life feel chaotic.
Recovery is possible, and it's about so much more than changing eating patterns. True healing involves addressing underlying emotional issues, rebuilding self-worth, challenging diet culture messages, and developing healthier coping strategies.
Signs of Disordered Eating
Our Treatment Approach
Evidence-Based Therapies
We utilize proven approaches including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Eating Disorders (CBT-E), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Family-Based Treatment (FBT) when appropriate.
Addressing Root Causes
We explore the emotional, psychological, and relational factors underlying your eating behaviors. This includes processing trauma, perfectionism, anxiety, and low self-worth.
Collaborative Care
We coordinate with dietitians, physicians, and psychiatrists as needed to provide comprehensive treatment. Recovery works best with a full team approach.
