Struggling with an eating disorder is one of the most isolating and difficult experiences a person can face — and one of the most misunderstood. At Evans Counseling Group, our therapists provide compassionate, specialized support for individuals dealing with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and disordered eating of all kinds. You deserve care that sees the whole person, not just the diagnosis. We're here when you're ready.
What Eating Disorder Therapy Can Help With
Eating disorders are complex mental health conditions — not lifestyle choices or phases. They affect people of all ages, genders, body types, and backgrounds, and they're often deeply connected to anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, and self-worth.
Our therapists work with individuals dealing with:
-
Anorexia nervosa
-
Bulimia nervosa
-
Binge eating disorder
-
Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)
-
Orthorexia and rigid food rules
-
Disordered eating patterns that don't fit a specific diagnosis
-
Negative body image and difficult relationships with food
-
Eating disorder recovery and relapse prevention
How We Work With Eating Disorder Clients
Our therapists take a whole-person approach to eating disorder treatment — addressing the emotional and psychological roots rather than focusing solely on food and behavior. Recovery is a process, and our therapist's are here to help at any and every stage.
Eating disorder therapy at Evans Counseling Group may include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most researched treatments for eating disorders — helps identify and shift the thought patterns and beliefs driving disordered eating behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Builds emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that support lasting recovery.
EMDR For eating disorders rooted in trauma or painful past experiences, EMDR can help process what's underneath the surface.
Body Image Work Helping clients develop a more compassionate, neutral relationship with their body — separate from worth, achievement, or appearance.
Family-Based Support For younger clients especially, involving family in the recovery process can make a significant difference in outcomes.
We work collaboratively with other members of your care team — including dietitians and medical providers — when appropriate.
