Does Online Therapy Work for Eating Disorders?

Although in-person therapy was the standard for many years, several studies have been conducted since the growth of online therapy services. What those studies found is that online therapy carries the same effectiveness as face-to-face appointments. Clients respond well to treatment from qualified therapists in both modalities. Our licensed therapists are qualified to work with clients in both the in-person and online settings.

What we have found is that many women and teens who are seeking therapy for an eating disorder would prefer to work with a specialized practice. They have a desire to feel fully understood, and they are seeking support for navigating all of the issues that impact their disorder. Our therapists, coaches, and clinicians all have extensive experience with eating disorders. This allows us to relate to our clients, focus our professional development in this area of expertise, and provide additional services that promote long-term health. By practicing therapy in the online environment, we are able to reach more individuals who want to find restorative healing.

Our team of knowledgeable and experienced therapists and coaches are qualified and licensed to treat residents of Connecticut. If you have been searching for a therapist for your eating disorder, wondering if they will be able to really understand and empathize with your personal situation, you have found us. We can’t wait to meet you and to help you get on your path to recovery and restoration.

What Are the Benefits of Online Therapy?

While online therapy is not right for everyone, we have found it to be of great benefit for many people on their healing journey. Our therapists are intentional about creating the very same personal, attentive environment in the online setting that they would in an in-person session. Just as we would in an office, we build a strong connection and therapeutic alliance with each patient. All of the modalities we practice are suitable in an online therapy session. These include:

Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Exposure Response Prevention (ERP)
Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT)

All sessions are fully private and confidential. Only you and your therapist are present in your session, which takes place over a secure, HIPAA-compliant video service.

One of the main reasons so many of our clients appreciate online therapy in Connecticut is that they can see an actual eating disorder specialist without having to travel far for treatment. Other reasons we have heard include:

Being able to participate in treatment from home or wherever they feel most comfortable
Not having to factor any commute time into their therapy appointments
Being able to meet with their therapist when they are traveling or at college
Finding it easier to focus on the session because there was zero stress in getting to the appointment

Clients who participate in online therapy need to have access to a reliable internet connection, and they should be comfortable using video call technology.

What is Eating Disorder Therapy?

The Recovered & Restored team of therapists and coaches all have a passion for working with individuals who are impacted by eating disorders. We each have direct experience with an eating disorder, and we are aware of the complexities that often surround this struggle. We treat Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating, and Orthorexia.

Every patient who contacts our practice will be welcomed as an individual with a unique story. Meet our team to learn more about our backgrounds and specializations. Through a personalized treatment plan, your therapist will work with you to identify and overcome both your eating disorder and the underlying issues that affect it. Eating disorders often come with co-occurring disorders and trauma that need to be addressed for sustained recovery. In addition to specific eating disorder treatment, therapists also treat clients for OCD, PTSD and C-PTSD, anxiety, and depression as applicable.

We don’t stop with individualized therapy. We also offer family therapy. Family sessions are beneficial for working through communication and conflict. To further support recovering clients and their families, our nutritionists and meal coaches offer services for ongoing meal planning. Our goal as a practice is to go beyond eating disorder recovery, and help clients pursue full restoration of their health, relationship to food and eating, and joy in life.
