Eating disorder Therapy

You spend all day thinking about food, weight and appearance. You go to extreme measures to manage your body and your emotions with food and exercise. You missed a family function because you didn't want to deal with food and you weren't able to be present at a meal with friends because you were worried about your weight. You're tired, anxious, and missing out on connection with family, friends, and values. Food is your obsession, your hobby, your best friend, and your worst enemy. You may have an eating disorder.
