Eating Disorder Treatment

An eating disorder is a psychiatric condition characterized by significant disturbances in one’s eating habits. Most individuals with an eating disorder are obsessed with their weight or the shape of their body. However, others may be obsessed with exercising or compelled to binge eat despite the consequences.
