When working with eating disorders, I use a combination of Eating Disorder Intuitive Therapy (EDIT) and EMDR to desensitize eating disorder triggers, symptoms, and root causes. A family systems approach may also prove beneficial in these cases to provide support and a plan for lasting progress. In certain cases, a higher level of care might be recommended and I will refer out.
