140. Cliff Notes: Everything You Need to Know About Eating Disorder Treatment Before You Begin

Understanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image Healing

The idea of eating disorder treatment can feel very overwhelming.

If you aren’t sure where to start, then this episode is for you. Think of it as your crash course—because who doesn't love a good cliff notes version?

When it comes to eating disorder treatment, building an outpatient team (if we’ve excluded higher level of care for now) is probably the most important factor; the indispensable trio of a therapist, dietitian, and doctor.

Note: We’re celebrating three amazing years of the Understanding Disordered Eating podcast! Just as a reminder, we’re taking a two-week break at the end of August. We’ll be back with fresh content after Labor Day weekend, on September 10th. In the meantime, catch up on our older episodes—they're still gems!
