What Are the Treatments for PTSD?
When you struggle with an Eating Disorder, healing can feel like an overwhelming process that often feels counter intuitive to the way we have learned to survive. It is so much more than ‘just eat’ and takes the process of compassion, curiosity and grace.
Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP)
Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP) is essential is helping individuals overcome fears and anxiety. This is accomplished by gradually exposing a man or woman to the feared object or circumstance with the goal desensitizing fears.
Additionally, ERP also focuses on assisting participants in resisting the use of compulsive behaviors that might typically be used to cope with feelings of fear or anxiety. The primary goal is for individuals to remain connected to the trigger without the use of their ritualistic behaviors.
ERP can be effective in the treatment of eating disorders as it helps participants overcome fears of forbidden foods and decrease urges to binge/purge.
