You have come to the right place and have already taken the hardest step in your recovery – acknowledging your disordered eating patterns. We commend you for standing up your eating disorder and to take back what’s yours!! Freedom around food, exercise, and your body. Be a prisoner no more!
At Branz Nutrition Counseling, our team of expert eating disorder dietitians is ready to help you achieve recovery and help you heal the relationship you have with food and your body. We provide medical nutrition therapy for people struggling with anorexia, binge eating disorder, bulimia, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, orthorexia, ARFID, and more.
When undergoing eating disorder treatment, it will not work if you are malnourished, or your brain is not functioning correctly. Our primary focus will be working through barriers that are preventing you from providing adequate nourishment to your body AND your mind.
We provide weight-inclusive nutrition therapy for people of all ages and all genders. We look forward to working with you.
Note: In order to secure a spot on a dietitian’s schedule, we need a valid payment method on file.
Looking for extra assistance outside of your dietitian nutritionist sessions? Try out our Recovery Coaching support to help reinforce your dietitian nutritionist’s recommendations
There are several treatment options for eating disorders. This includes seeing a multidisciplinary team, which can include but is not limited to a dietitian, therapist, psychiatrist, pediatrician, or PCP.
Yes! It’s 100% recommended to have a dietitian on your team when doing outpatient treatment for an eating disorder.
A dietitian can help navigate meal plan recommendations, challenge food rules and beliefs, support challenging food exposures, and participate in meal and snack outings.
Most insurance companies, pending the patient’s nutrition benefits under their plan, cover 100% of outpatient sessions with a dietitian. While we cannot guarantee 100% coverage as this is dependent on your insurance plan, there may be times when the client may have a small copay, co-insurance, or pay towards their deductible. This beats paying out of pocket anyday when you already pay each month just to have insurance.
This really depends on the client and their motivation for recovery. In addition, there is no set time limit on when recovery has to be “finished” either. Setting a specific time can add additional stress and anxiety. Our goal is to help separate the eating disorder asap from the patient so they can go on living their best life.
It absolutely can work and we truly believe in the power of recovery. However this is dependent on the patient as well. We tell our clients, we can make recommendations and support you, but we can not do the hard work for you outside of sessions.
