Life has been really tough recently for most. I recently chatted with numerous people who are feeling anxious or down. Most people I speak with wait a long time before starting treatment. Why continue to wait? Would you like to have a better relationship with anxiety? Are your nervous or self-critical thoughts bringing you down? Are you prepared to try something new? I use a compassionate and empathetic approach to evidence-based interventions such as CBT, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

FAQ - Eating Disorders Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with eating disorders?
Eating disorders are a group of serious mental health conditions characterized by disruptions in normal eating patterns and persistent negative thoughts related to body image and weight. Common eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). While many people experience occasional concerns about food or body image, eating disorders are distinct in that they significantly impair physical health and daily functioning. Psychiatrists and other mental health professionals play an important role in supporting recovery by helping individuals with eating disorders manage distressing thoughts and emotions while also promoting physical healing, including weight restoration when necessary.
How do psychiatrists treat eating disorders?
Psychiatric care typically begins with a comprehensive assessment to evaluate the individual's symptoms, medical status, and overall needs. This evaluation helps determine the most appropriate level of care. In some cases, a psychiatrist may recommend a higher level of support—such as inpatient hospitalization, residential treatment, or an intensive outpatient program (IOP)—to first stabilize physical health and ensure safety before transitioning to outpatient psychiatric care. Once medically stable, clients can work with a psychiatrist on longer-term mental health goals, including managing mood, reducing distressing thoughts, and supporting sustainable recovery.
Psychiatrists who specialize in eating disorders are trained in both psychiatric evaluation and medication management. Although there are no medications that specifically treat eating disorders, psychiatrists may prescribe medications—such as antidepressants—to address symptoms like anxiety, depression, or obsessive thinking that often co-occur with or contribute to disordered eating behaviors. Some psychiatrists may offer psychotherapy themselves, though they often collaborate with a broader care team that includes therapists, dietitians, and primary care providers, each offering complementary support throughout the recovery process.

How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in eating disorders?
Because not all psychiatrists are trained to treat eating disorders, it is important to seek a provider with relevant expertise. The Psychology Today online directory allows users to search for psychiatrists with experience in treating eating disorders. When reaching out to a potential provider, it's helpful to ask about their experience treating your specific diagnosis, how they integrate medication and therapy into treatment, and how they coordinate care with other treatment team members. Also consider practical factors such as appointment availability, telehealth options, and insurance coverage to ensure a good fit.
