Issues Commonly Addressed in Anorexia Therapy
Anorexia therapy is a space to work through the complex emotional, cognitive, and physical challenges connected to restrictive eating and body image concerns. These are among the most common areas of focus in treatment:
Food Restriction & Calorie Control Behaviors
Therapy helps address patterns of limiting food intake, rigid calorie counting, and fear-based decision-making around meals and nourishment.
Distorted Body Image & Self-Perception
Many individuals with anorexia experience intense negative self-evaluation or a distorted perception of size and shape. Therapy supports building a healthier, more realistic connection with one’s body.
Fear of Weight Gain & Loss of Control
This often appears as anxiety around changes in weight or discomfort with physical fullness. Therapy helps reduce emotional distress associated with nourishment and bodily change.
Perfectionism & High Self-Pressure
A common trait in anorexia is feeling the need to be “in control,” to achieve flawlessly, or to meet unrealistically high expectations. Therapy works to soften these internal demands and develop healthier self-worth.
Emotional Regulation & Coping Skills
Many individuals use restrictive eating as a way to cope with stress, uncertainty, or emotional overwhelm. Therapy helps build new, sustainable tools for emotional processing and support.
