Psychiatric Treatment for Eating Disorders
Eating Disorder Treatment
Effective eating disorder treatment includes monitoring physical health while addressing the psychological causes behind the disorder. With professional support, recovery is possible. Early intervention increases the likelihood of positive outcomes, helping individuals regain a healthy relationship with food and improve overall well-being.
Personalized Care for Eating Disorders
Eating disorder treatment is tailored to individual needs, providing care for conditions like anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder (BED), and OSFED. Treatment approaches are based on current clinical evidence and are designed to support both physical and mental health recovery.
A Multidisciplinary Team for Comprehensive Support
Treatment is delivered by a team of specialists, including consultant psychiatrists, ward doctors, nurses, dietitians, and therapists. The therapeutic team may include cognitive behavioral therapists, family therapists, and occupational therapists, all working together to support recovery.
Flexible Outpatient Treatment Options
Outpatient treatment is ideal for those who cannot commit to inpatient care but still require structured support. One-on-one consultations with psychiatrists, therapists, or dietitians help individuals manage their eating disorder while maintaining their daily responsibilities, such as work or studies.
Day Patient Treatment for Eating Disorders
A day therapy program offers flexible treatment options, accommodating work, family, and academic commitments. Treatment can be attended on a full or half-day basis, allowing individuals to participate in therapy, meal support, and structured guidance while continuing their daily routine.
Services include:
- Diagnostic assessment
- Medications recommendations
- Schedule 8 medications – optional support
- Multidisciplinary care planning
- Work&Study support
- Wait time: 2-3 weeks
Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), Binge- and other Eating Disorders (BED) demonstrates strong co-morbidity with alcohol and illicit substance use, impulsivity and emotional dysregulation (which is frequently linked to personality disorders), insomnia and mood disorders. These symptoms and conditions are often combined in one way or another, in the same person.
Our expert psychiatrist group are highly-aware of the above conditions and of the benefits of addressing person’s unique and often complex presentation over an attempt to explain identified symptoms with one condition which typically could result in the unsatisfactory treatment of only one isolated problem. Our psychiatrists offer comprehensive assessment across all symptom domains which in many people expand beyond the affected ability to focus, concentrate and study or beyond their eating behaviours.
An individually designed treatment plan may include medications which have an evidence-base for ADHD and/or Eating Disorder. Most importantly, all of our psychiatrists closely collaborate with the multidisciplinary team of providers who will support you in your staged treatment and management plan. This approach will allow you to address your personal and interpersonal effectiveness; self-awareness and emotional intelligence, study, work and career performance, nutrition and meal planning and optimal lifestyle, all instrumental for to your self-efficacy and success in life.
