Types of Eating Disorders We Treat

Anorexia Nervosa

Characterized by food restriction, intense fear of weight gain, and body image distortion. Anorexia can lead to serious medical complications and requires careful, coordinated care.

Bulimia Nervosa

Involves cycles of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviors such as vomiting, laxative use, or excessive exercise, often accompanied by shame and loss of control.

Binge-Eating Disorder

Marked by recurrent episodes of eating large amounts of food with a sense of loss of control, without compensatory behaviors.

ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder)

Involves restrictive eating driven by sensory sensitivities, fear of choking or vomiting, or lack of interest in food — without concerns about body shape or weight.
