What types of eating disorders can a psychologist treat?
Psychologists treat anorexia, bulimia, BED (binge eating disorder), ARFID (avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder), and other atypical eating disorders. Treatment is tailored to the specific diagnosis and may include cognitive therapy, nutritional guidance, and body awareness.
How does eating disorder treatment work?
Treatment typically combines talk therapy focused on thoughts and feelings about food and body, meal planning, and possibly collaboration with a physician and dietitian. The course is often longer than for other conditions and requires patience and persistence.
Can I get a subsidy for eating disorder treatment?
Yes, eating disorders are among the diagnoses that may qualify for a subsidy through national health insurance with a GP referral. Additionally, many regions have specialized treatment programs and outpatient clinics for eating disorders.
