Some symptoms of an eating disorder are if your teen begins to eat healthy, cutting out certain food groups that are “bad” or “unhealthy,” deciding to be a vegetarian or vegan but taking it to an extreme. You may notice your teen pushing food around their plate but not eating it, developing excessive rules around food that seems above and beyond those of a typical teen.
At Campbell Teen & Family Therapy, we offer treatment for all eating disorders. Our philosophy is that it takes a team. This team consists of the family, the therapist, the primary care doctor and a dietitian. We partner with Bay Area Nutrition, to make access to dietitian services easy and convenient, they are located next door to us! We allow our patients to use whichever medical doctor they are comfortable with. If your doctor is not an eating disorder specialist and you cannot get into an eating disorder specialist doctor due to wait lists, then we can help to coach your doctor on the tests needed to assess for an eating disorder and on what our program requires for medical monitoring.

Sarah Farnsworth
Pre-Licensed Professional, MFA, RPS
Eating disorders can be one of the most difficult things to process because of their deeply personal and oftentimes secretive nature. For those who have or have had an eating disorder, food is a highly charged arena, which can make otherwise neutral occasions -- social gatherings, dating, holidays -- tumultuous battlegrounds. It brings you into contact with a self you can't accept, nurture, or trust. I offer a space where we can safely explore these feelings, as well as the structures beneath them. This is a difficult journey, but you don't have to go it alone.
