Starting Eating disorders in Peachtree City

What is eating disorder therapy?

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).

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

The signs of an eating disorder can include:

  • 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.

Anorexia and Bulimia: The Underlying Causes

When it’s comes to understanding the causes of anorexia and bulimia, it’s important to remember that:

  • Genes can be a major influence when it comes to these disorders. You are 12 times more likely to develop them if one member or more than one member of your family already has them. Your genes can also influence how you perceive food.
  • Mental health issues also play a part where chances of eating disorders are concerned. Anorexia and bulimia are both classic symptoms of depression. Although it should also be pointed out those suffering from these disorders can have depressive symptoms brought on by totally different factors.
  • Trauma can also cause disorders, especially if one has experienced physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. Even experiences that caused shame, guilt, or destroyed one’s confidence can also cause these.
  • Environmental influences like peer pressure can also cause these eating disorders.

Symptoms of Eating Disorders

The effects and symptoms of eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia include:

  • Depression and anxiety
  • Fixation over one’s body image
  • Episodes of binge eating followed by purging
  • Totally avoiding food
  • Following a strict diet over a long period of time to lose weight (which often results in loss of essential nutrients)
  • Feeling the need to watch one’s weight
  • Feeling shame or guilt after eating

Challenges and How to Get Bulimia Therapy

At Thriveworks, our clinicians can work with you to offer:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Addresses distorted thoughts and behaviors related to food, body image, and weight, helping individuals develop healthier eating habits and coping strategies.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Teaches mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance skills to manage triggers for disordered eating and improve emotional well-being.
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Encourages individuals to accept difficult emotions and thoughts associated with their eating disorder while committing to actions aligned with personal values, fostering psychological flexibility and well-being.
  • Family-Based Treatment (FBT): Involves the entire family in the treatment process, addressing family dynamics and promoting parental support in restoring the individual’s health and well-being.
  • Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT): Focuses on improving interpersonal relationships and addressing social issues that may contribute to disordered eating, helping individuals develop healthier ways of relating to others.
  • Nutritional Counseling: Provides education and guidance on balanced eating, meal planning, and intuitive eating principles to help individuals establish a healthy relationship with food.

Reach out to schedule a session with a provider at Thriveworks Peachtree City if you’re ready to work through the symptoms of eating disorders. Simply call or go online to schedule today.

Having therapy at your fingertips is a blessing especially when the experts at Thriveworks are so phenomenal. My 11year old and I see the same person who somehow can relate to both of us. I feel renewed and seen in each meeting, my counselor Lakeisha uses several tools and techniques to help me that are easy to implement in daily practice that I also recommend to my friends and family.

I have had an extraordinary experience using Thriveworks. I use the platform for both Individual Counseling and Couples Counseling. My Individual Therapist has revolutionized my ability to cope day to day as well as broach larger big picture issues. It's drastically improved my quality of life. She has and continues to help me move forward toward my personal goals. Our Couples Counselor has helped facilitate clear and living communication between my side and I and has and continues to help us reach our goals and explore and set new ones to improve the quality of our relationship and our day to day lives. I can't say enough good things about them both, and I have and do recommend Thriveworks to anyone who will listen! I'm so grateful for the quality of the counseling, the convenience of the platform, and the support provided.

I dont feel broken or weird, I feel like someone actually understands me and is actively giving me the answers I need when I have problems with my brain or body I dont understand. And I cant rant about hyperfixations without being ignored or told to stop, which is a plus.
