What type of counselling do I need?
Navigating the mental health service for support with eating disorders, body image, and disordered eating can feel very overwhelming. On this page, you’ll find the answers to common questions when seeking help for disordered eating, such as “How do I find an eating disorder therapist in the UK?”. Here I will guide you through the different types of talking therapies offered for disordered eating and body image, the advantages and disadvantages of CBT, and what to look for in an eating disorder specialist.
I’ve also included recommended resources such as podcasts and books to help support your recovery.
If you require emergency support, please contact one of the recommended emergency support organisations.
A comprehensive guide to the different types of talking therapy available, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Counselling, Psycho-dynamic counselling and Psychotherapy. I also include links to therapist directories and a guide to choosing the right mental health professional for you.
