Entry 4: My Therapist on How Healing Trauma Can Help Heal Your Eating Disorder (Part 1)
Join us for the fourth entry of The Eating Disorder Diaries where Amy interviews her therapist, Cindy White. In this sit-down interview, Amy and Cindy discuss how critical therapy can be to managing a more healthy life for yourself to how healing your trauma can help you heal your eating disorder. Cindy gives insights into EMDR, CBT, among other treatment methods, and touches on how therapy can and is becoming more accessible to wider audiences. They discuss how to best "break up" with a therapist you're not getting along with, to what therapy looks like for first-timers, to how critical and useful it can be to have therapy goals to get the most out of your sessions.
