Eating Disorder Support

Mental health services for students trying to manage an eating disorder or disordered eating are important, in part so that the student can be successful in their academics. Our staff assists students in finding the appropriate level of care for these needs and symptoms.

Eating disorder support to help students whose symptoms are stable but need support to stay on track is available on campus. This support may also involve a referral to Campus Care or another primary care provider and a dietician. This support will likely include ongoing care coordination with previous providers.

If additional services are needed to assist a student with symptoms that are not currently stable or well-managed, we will help a student explore and access services at a higher, more appropriate level of care. 

Wondering if you should seek help? Learn more about disordered eating versus eating disorders through the National Eating Disorder Association, and complete this eating disorder screening tool for a recommendation.

Eating Disorder Support Team

The Eating Disorder Support Team is an interdisciplinary team comprised of physicians, a dietitian, counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists who help students with eating and/or body image concerns.

This interdisciplinary team is designed to support students whose symptoms are currently stable but who need additional support to stay on track. Some students may need a higher level of care than the team is able to provide. When this occurs, members will work with the student to make referrals to other resources and treatment options.

Radical Body Image Acceptance Group

Students can join an eight-week, semi-structured group for body image acceptance based on an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) model.  This group can accommodate broad concerns related to body image – clients learn powerful strategies to help accept and move beyond body image imperfections while identifying valued life areas where body image distress “gets in the way”.
