What Are The Evidence-Based Therapies for Eating Disorder Recovery?
Eating Disorder Solutions’ holistic treatment programs are evidence-based and trauma-informed to help you identify and overcome the root causes of eating disorders and other harmful behaviors. These highly effective therapy modalities are proven to help reframe the way we think about our relationship with food and improve emotional self-regulation to help break the cycle of disordered eating. They include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy challenges the negative thought-behavior patterns behind disordered eating and other harmful habits. By identifying triggering thoughts, emotions, and situations, CBT clients develop a better sense of self-awareness beneficial to breaking the cycle.
Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is talk-therapy, specifically designed to treat co-occurring mental health and personality disorders. Throughout the course of treatment clients are equipped with real-world skills to improve self-esteem, self-acceptance, and emotional regulation for continued sobriety.
Harm Reduction Therapy
Harm reduction therapy teaches clients they are in control of their recovery journey. Therapy redirects old patterns of behavior, fomenting new perspectives in addressing disordered eating habits. The goal of harm reduction therapy is to minimize risks of relapse and eating disorder behaviors.
Expressive Arts Therapy
Emotional processing through artistic expression can make it easier to work through trauma and chal g emotions. Drawing, painting, writing, and other crafts offer a beneficial means of self-discovery lengin and expression.
Co-Occurring Disorder Expertise
Depression, anxiety, and trauma are some of the conditions that can go hand in hand with eating disorders. Our staff is experienced in recognizing these conditions and helping clients overcome them.
