Services at The Eating Disorder Center

Are you ready to find freedom?

We can help

Struggling with constant thoughts about food and your body is exhausting. 

You might feel scared to recover, yet, part of you wishes you could feel at peace with food and your body.

You don't have to feel trapped anymore. 

If you or a loved one are struggling with food or body image, you're not alone.

Recovery is possible, and you deserve support.

How We Can Help

We provide personalized help to individuals struggling with food or body image issues in all stages of life, including adults of all ages, teens, and children. We offer options to support for families affected by eating disorders, as well.​

Sessions are confidential and discrete. We have experience treating public figures.

Eating and Body Image Issues We Treat

We treat many types of eating issues, including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, OSFED, Orthorexia and compulsive exercise. We also offer specialized treatment for body image issues, helping individuals with body dysmorphia to develop more compassionate relationships with their bodies and themselves as a whole.

Eating disorders rarely travel alone. So, we also offer EMDR therapy for eating disorders and trauma in Rockville, Maryland and virtually throughout Maryland and Virginia. We also have expertise in treating co-occurring anxiety and OCD with eating disorders.

Who We Are

We are a premier group of mental health therapists who provide outpatient eating disorder therapy and skillful coaching support.

Our eating disorder therapists focus on providing evidence-based therapies that are specialized for the treatment of eating disorders and body image issues.

We also treat issues that can be intertwined with eating disorders and body image issues, including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), PTSD/ trauma, anxiety, and mood disorders.

We have a highly compassionate and experienced team.

We are Health at Every Size and social justice-informed providers, and we believe this approach is a crucial element of eating disorder treatment.

​We are LGBTQIA+ affirming therapists and welcome clients of all sexual orientations and gender identities.

We are also neurodiversity affirming therapists.

Many of our clinicians have either personally recovered or supported a loved one in recovery. Most of our admin team is personally recovered, as well. 

​We are frequently sought out by the media, including CNN and a variety of other print and TV outlets, to speak about eating disorders and body image issues. Plus, our team includes some award-winning therapists! 

We also provide professional trainings on eating disorders and eating disorder treatments.​

Our Services

Therapy for Eating Disorders

We provide psychotherapy to teens and adults who are struggling with eating disorders, including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and OSFED. 

We are the premier outpatient therapy center for the treatment of eating disorders in Montgomery County, Maryland. We offer virtual therapy in Maryland, Virginia, New York, Washington, D.C., Florida and California.

We use evidence-based treatment methods, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) skills, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and modified FBT treatment. We also encourage self-compassion and model this for our clients.

We pride ourselves on being action-oriented therapists, setting recovery goals, and doing exposures with clients, such as eating meals or snacks together.

We will also talk about food, body image, and any underlying issues and emotions you're going through.

We value collaboration with other local eating disorder treatment providers, including dietitians, psychiatrists, and physicians.

We are thankful to have helped many people to recover from eating disorders and body hatred. 

Eating Disorder Recovery Coaching for individuals and parents

We offer eating disorder recovery coaching to individuals worldwide, as a powerful added support to therapy during the treatment process.

Individual coaching can help you to take steps towards recovery and to manage day-to-day challenges that occur between therapy sessions.

Coaching may also be appropriate as a stand-alone intervention for those struggling with sub-clinical body image issues, disordered eating, or who are further along in their recovery.

We have coaches who can work with people all over the world via Zoom, which is an online video platform.

Coaching involves a weekly video chat session, and it may include brief email support between sessions. Through coaching, we set recovery goals with clients, provide actionable tools and strategies and added support for recovery.

​Our parent coach helps parents of adolescents navigate issues that often arise while supporting a teen or young adult through the eating disorder recovery process.

In addition to their professional experience, most of our coaches have personally recovered from their own eating disorders, which also drives their passion for helping others to find freedom.
