These disorders are significant mental health conditions characterized by irregular or unhealthy eating patterns and an intense focus on body weight and shape. Common conditions addressed in Eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID).

How does eating disorder therapy work?

At Thriveworks, Eating disorders begins with a thorough assessment and personalized treatment plan. Central to eating disorder therapy is psychotherapy, often employing cognitive behavioral therapy and other specialized techniques to target negative thought patterns.

Signs of an eating disorder

  • Drastic weight changes
  • Preoccupation with food and body image
  • Binge eating or extreme dieting
  • Excessive exercise
  • Social withdrawal and secrecy around eating
  • Physical and emotional symptoms like fatigue and anxiety

What is the success rate of CBT for eating disorders?

CBT’s remission rate, according to some research, is generally between 50-30% for those seeking assistance for eating disorder symptoms.

What is the recovery rate for people with eating disorders?

The recovery rate for those seeking assistance with eating disorders depends entirely on the individual’s involvement in sessions, the severity of their symptoms, and their willingness to change their eating habits and relationship with food.

What Is Binge Eating Disorder? – Therapists and Counselors in Charlotte

Binge Eating Disorder is one of the most prevalent eating disorders that adults can suffer from. Despite this fact there is far less media coverage and understanding of B.E.D. when compared to conditions like Bulimia and Anorexia. The main symptoms of B.E.D are the urge to continue eating food even after you are entirely full and the often complete inability to control your food intake around meal times. Food binges are usually followed by intense emotions such as shame and guilt.

If this sounds familiar and you think you could benefit from talking to a professional, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Charlotte. We can get you scheduled with binge eating disorder counseling right away.

The Impact Of B.E.D.

For many, these issues result in weight gain and obesity. These are directly linked to a drastic increase in the likelihood of developing conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease and even stroke. But the physical issues aren’t isolated; if left untreated many B.E.D. suffers become clinically depressed and experience anxiety disorders.

Treating B.E.D Is Vitally Important.

Thankfully for those suffering from B.E.D. the condition can be treated. Some of the most effective ways of treating the disorder are the counseling based methods. These are the methods that Thriveworks Charlotte Counseling specializes in.

The Thriveworks Charlotte counselors are specifically trained to help people who suffer from disorders like B.E.D. The counseling process is designed to cater towards your specific needs. To get started today, reach out to us. We offer evening and weekend sessions, and we accept most major insurances.
