Recognizing the existence of an eating disorder in an adolescent is important in providing necessary help and support. But what should parents and teachers be looking for to make the determination? And if a problem does exist, what’s the best way to start the dialogue with the adolescent about seeking help? These are certainly tough conversations. In this episode, we’re joined by Jen Teutscher, program director at Shoreline Center for Eating Disorder Treatment in Laguna Hills, Ca and Anna Jones, the primary therapist at the Center. Jen and Anna share their advice on how to best help children with eating disorders. Since 1995, the Shoreline Center for Eating Disorder Treatment has successfully been helping individuals achieve recovery from anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder for both men and women. We offer personalized, compassionate programs, delivered by highly-trained and experienced eating disorder experts, many of whom are recovered themselves. For full show transcript, visit site here.
