Therapy for Eating Disorders
People of all ages struggle with eating disorders. There are physical and mental illnesses that are treatable, but if left untreated, can have profound consequences on your health. Your body needs to maintain a balance to keep you alive, robbing it of necessary nutrients and calories can affect your brain and heart and cause permanent damage. No matter your age, race, or body shape, eating disorders can affect anyone.
Eating Disorders Don't Discriminate, Start Your Journey to Recovery Today!
The National Eating Disorders Association surveys estimate that 20 million American women and 10 million American men will suffer from an eating disorder at some point in their lives. Many eating disorders do not appear the same way. That's where we come in.
At Sharing Temple Counseling LLC, we approach eating disorders using the Health at Every Size (HAES) approach. This system promotes and builds stronger, healthier coping skills. We believe in working as a team and stabilizing the eating disorder first and for most. This may be achieved through FBT, psychotherapy, EMDR and CBT. It is extremely important for the clinician to promote body positivity and build strong, healthy coping skills.
Working with family, a physician, and a
dietitian is essential in the recovery process and monitoring progress. If you or a loved one are struggling with an eating disorder or may suspect someone has an eating disorder, reach out to us to schedule an initial consultation.
Learn How to Support a Loved One with an Eating Disorder
When your loved one is suffering from an eating disorder, you want to do everything you can to help them. Parenting is a hard job, and there is no instruction book. Our coaching program is different from therapy. Rather than discussing your past and diving into working through trauma, coaching involves working forward, achieving goals, and outlining the steps it takes to get there.
Our coaching program builds on the strengths you already have and helps you learn new ones. This moving forward system will help you develop the tools and skills to assist your loved one with recovery at home. This is meant to be an extension of the coping skills the family member is learning in their own therapy sessions. You'll learn the Dos and Don'ts of the recovery process and how to actively and positively support your loved one. This helps families learn to manage their home more effectively and assist in a successful recovery.
Parent Coaching sessions are designed to help parents understand how their loved one or child is struggling help improve family dynamics in the home. This includes psycho-education to better understand eating disorders and other mental health disorders and how to support your family member in the recovery process.
