F.E.A.S.T. List of Eating Disorder Treatment Specialists

The eating disorder specialists included in the lists below have agreed to the following principles:

  • Eating disorders are biologically based mental illness and fully treatable with a combination of nutritional, medical, and therapeutic supports.
  • Parents do not cause eating disorders, and patients do not choose eating disorders.
  • Parents and caregivers are a powerful tool for a loved one’s recovery from eating disorder.
  • Blaming and marginalizing parents in the eating disorder treatment process causes harm and suffering.
  • When available, patients should receive evidence-based treatment.
  • Families should be supported in seeking the most appropriate treatment in the least restrictive environment possible.
  • Food is medicine: all treatment should include urgent and ongoing nutritional rehabilitation.
  • When the family is supported, the patient is supported.
  • Siblings and all family members are affected by a family member’s illness, and deserve full attention to their needs.
  • Parents have unique abilities to offer other parents support, information, and the wisdom of experience.

    NOTE: F.E.A.S.T. neither recommends nor opposes specific treatment providers. This listing is for informational purposes only. If you treat eating disorders and would like to be added to the list, please see our online form.
