EATING DISORDER TREATMENT DUBAI
Eating disorders, such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, present as complex conditions characterized by disordered eating behaviors, significantly impacting both physical and mental well-being. These disorders extend beyond mere dietary concerns, closely linked with aspects of self-perception, control mechanisms, and emotional health. As a clinical psychologist in Dubai, I am dedicated to providing a path of understanding, healing and empowerment through the treatment of eating disorders. If you or someone close to you is struggling with an eating disorder, know that a path back to recovery and self-awareness is achievable. Together, we will navigate the multifaceted aspects of these conditions, creating a healthier relationship with food, body image, and self.
