Eating Disorders
• Anorexia nervosa
• Bulimia nervosa
• Binge Eating Disorder (BED)
• Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorders (OSFED / EDNOS)
• Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)
These conditions may involve restrictive eating, overeating, purging behaviors, obsessive thoughts about weight/shape, and distressing rituals around food. They are often linked with co-occurring concerns such as anxiety, depression, or trauma.
What Treatment Looks Like
• Comprehensive Assessment
We begin with a detailed intake to understand your history, challenges, and goals. This helps us tailor a plan to your unique needs.
• Therapeutic Modalities
Depending on the individual, we may integrate:
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT-E)
• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
• Family-Based Therapy (for adolescents and families)
• Internal Family Systems (IFS) or trauma-focused care (when appropriate)
• Collaboration with External Providers
If medical monitoring, dietetic support, or higher levels of care are required, we coordinate with trusted physicians, dietitians, or specialized programs to ensure continuity and safety.
• Ongoing Support & Relapse Prevention
Therapy focuses on developing healthier coping skills, addressing body image concerns, regulating emotions, and building resilience for long-term recovery.
Eating disorders are not about food alone—they’re about identity, coping, trauma, and self-worth. At Liv, we emphasize:
• Empathy & Safety — A compassionate, nonjudgmental environment.
• Body-neutral language — We measure progress by healing, not numbers on a scale.
• Client agency & collaboration — You guide the pace; we provide structure and support.
• Evidence-based practices — Grounded in proven methods while flexible to your needs.
• Whole-person focus — Addressing emotional, relational, and behavioral wellbeing.
If you or someone you love is struggling with an eating disorder, help is available. We’re here to provide a safe space and effective care.
