Discover how starting eating disorders therapy can support your own journey toward a happier, more fulfilling life.
Eating disorder therapy is a specialized approach aimed at assisting those who are grappling with a range of eating disorders. 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).
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.
The signs of an eating disorder can include:
CBT’s remission rate, according to some research, is generally between 50-30% for those seeking assistance for eating disorder symptoms.
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.
Eating disorder therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of Eating disorders will vary from one person to the next, dependent on their specific needs. Your therapist can help to determine what might be most beneficial for you.
Eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia are serious psychiatric disorders with severe health consequences. These disorders can introduce significant physical risks and require both medical and psychological interventions for effective treatment.
At Thriveworks New Orleans, we provide holistic care to address the mental and physical harm caused by eating disorders. Reach out to our office at (504) 732-9138 to schedule your session today.
The development of eating disorders is often deeply personal, but mental health professionals generally recognize two categories of causes:
Eating disorders are not just phases; they are serious mental illnesses. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) outlines the criteria for diagnosing them.
Anorexia Nervosa:
Anorexia can lead to serious health issues, including low heart rate, anemia, low blood pressure, kidney damage, abnormal heartbeat, menstrual disruptions, heart failure, infertility, low white blood cell counts, endocrine disruptions, osteoporosis, and premature death.
Bulimia Nervosa:
Bulimia can cause health problems such as ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease, tooth decay, gastric rupture, constipation, kidney damage, electrolyte imbalance, and heart failure.
