Suzanne Straebler, Ph.D., PMH-BC and Melissa Klein, Ph.D. discuss what patients should know about eating disorders. They highlight the common types of disordered eating, including Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa, and how they can impact any one of different backgrounds. They also share how the impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic and increased social media usage have led to lower self esteem and perception issues that can impact eating disorders. They also discuss how the Eating Disorders Service at WCM helps parents and children work through Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID).
