Therapists who specialize in eating disorders are trained to help individuals understand and recover from disordered eating behaviors. They use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT-E), Family-Based Treatment (FBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to address the emotional and psychological roots of the disorder. These therapists often work as part of a treatment team alongside dietitians and medical providers. They support individuals in developing a healthier relationship with food, body image, and self-worth.
