Eating Disorder Therapy – Adelaide Psychologists & Telehealth Online Therapy Australia

Eating disorders are serious and complex mental health conditions that affect thoughts, emotions, and behaviours related to food, body image, and exercise. They can occur at any age and, if left untreated, may lead to significant physical and psychological health problems.

Eating disorders may cause damage to the heart, digestive system, bones, and teeth, and are strongly associated with depression, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts. Early access to evidence-based eating disorder therapy is important for improving outcomes and supporting recovery.

At Prime Path Psychology, our eating disorder clinic provides eating disorder treatment and counselling through both in-person sessions with our Adelaide psychologists and telehealth online therapy across Australia, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Canberra, Hobart, and Darwin.

Recognising Signs of an Eating Disorder

Common signs that may indicate the presence of an eating disorder include:

  • Persistent preoccupation with food, body weight, or body shape
  • Intense fear of gaining weight, even when underweight
  • Skipping meals, hiding food, or avoiding eating in front of others
  • Guilt, shame, or anxiety after eating
  • Binge eating or feeling out of control around food
  • Purging behaviours such as vomiting, laxative misuse, or excessive exercise
  • Frequent body checking or weighing

When these difficulties begin to interfere with everyday life, seeking eating disorder therapy or counselling can provide meaningful support.

Our eating disorder psychologists provide therapy for:

  • Anorexia nervosa
  • Bulimia nervosa

Evidence-Based Treatment – CBT for Eating Disorders

We specialise in Enhanced Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT-E), an evidence-based approach for the treatment of all major eating disorders.

CBT-E focuses on:

  1. Building knowledge about the health impacts of eating disorders and strengthening motivation for eating disorder recovery
  2. Identifying and addressing unhelpful beliefs and thinking patterns about food, body image, and weight
  3. Supporting the development of healthier eating behaviours and long-term coping strategies

CBT-E is delivered both in-person at our Adelaide eating disorder clinic and via telehealth therapy across Australia.

Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinicians

Our team includes Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinicians, trained in CBT-E and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy through the Beck Institute. We work with adults and families, tailoring therapy to individual needs in order to support effective recovery.
