What it looks like
Eating disorders rarely look like the stereotype
You don't have to be at a particular weight, look a particular way, or hit a particular level of severity to qualify for care. If your relationship with food, eating, or your body is taking up more space than you want it to, that's reason enough to come in. A psychiatric evaluation can help clarify what's going on and guide the right next steps for your care.
Anorexia Nervosa
Restriction of food intake leading to significantly low body weight, alongside intense fear of weight gain and a distorted relationship with body and food.
Bulimia Nervosa
Cycles of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviors — purging, restricting, over-exercising — often hidden and exhausting to live with.
Binge-Eating Disorder
Recurrent episodes of eating large amounts of food with a feeling of loss of control, without the regular compensatory behaviors of bulimia.
Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)
Severely limited eating tied to sensory issues, fear of choking or vomiting, or low interest in food — not driven by body image.
Emotional Eating
Using food to manage emotion — stress, sadness, boredom, anxiety — in ways that have started to feel out of your control.
Body Image Distress & Disordered Eating Behaviors
Subclinical patterns — chronic dieting, food rules, body checking, exercise compulsion — that haven't crossed into a formal diagnosis but are taking up too much of your life.
How we treat it
How we approach eating disorder care
Eating disorder treatment begins with a 60-minute psychiatric evaluation conducted through secure telehealth — a careful, non-judgmental conversation about what you're experiencing, when it started, and what else (anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma) is wrapped up in it. Part of the visit is making sure outpatient telehealth is the appropriate level of care.
For most adults, psychotherapy is the core of treatment — focused on the thinking patterns, body image, and emotional drivers underneath the behaviors. Where it's indicated, medication management addresses co-occurring depression, anxiety, or OCD — and for binge-eating disorder, lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse) is FDA-approved and may be appropriate.
Eating disorder care typically involves a team: psychiatric provider, primary care, and often a registered dietitian. We'll coordinate with the rest of your team where it helps, and step you up to a higher level of care any time the outpatient setting isn't enough.

Common questions about eating disorder care
Do you treat active anorexia, or do I need a higher level of care?
Telehealth psychiatric care is a good fit for adults who are medically stable and don't require the structure of a residential, partial-hospitalization, or intensive outpatient program. If your weight, vital signs, or labs are unstable — or you need daily meal support — we'll help you find a higher level of care first, then partner with you when you're ready to step back down.
Will I have to weigh in or share weights?
Weight is part of clinical safety for eating disorders, but how we discuss it is something we'll talk through together. Many patients also work with a primary care provider or registered dietitian for the medical and nutritional pieces, so psychiatric visits can stay focused on mood, anxiety, and the thinking patterns underneath the behaviors.
What does psychiatric care for eating disorders actually do?
Medication isn't the primary treatment for most eating disorders, but it can meaningfully help the anxiety, depression, OCD, or trauma that often drive the behaviors. Supportive therapy focuses on the mental and emotional patterns — body image, food rules, all-or-nothing thinking — alongside whatever nutrition or medical work is happening with the rest of your team.
Is this something I have to disclose to my insurance?
Like any other condition, treatment is documented in your medical record and billed through your behavioral-health benefits. Stillwell is in-network with most major carriers through Zocdoc, which verifies your specific coverage during booking.
