The main differences between disordered eating and eating disorders are the severity of symptoms, the presence of diagnostic criteria, and the potential consequences. Disordered eating involves a range of unhealthy eating behaviours and attitudes that do not necessarily meet the criteria for an eating disorder but can still negatively impact one’s well-being. Eating disorders are diagnosable mental health conditions with specific criteria and often require a more structured and intensive treatment approach. In our first couple of sessions together, we will work with you to help determine which category your struggles fall under and what the best course of treatment will be for you.
