Eating Disorders

Eating disorders encompass a range of psychological conditions that cause unhealthy eating habits to develop, often stemming from complex interplays of genetic, psychological, and sociocultural factors. Disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder can severely impact physical health and mental well-being. This session explores the neurobiological underpinnings of disordered eating, including the role of brain circuits involved in reward, impulse control, and body image perception. Advances in diagnostic frameworks, early intervention strategies, and multimodal treatments ranging from cognitive behavioral therapy to family-based therapy are examined. Cultural and gender-based nuances that affect presentation and treatment adherence are also considered. Emphasis is placed on a holistic, trauma-informed approach to recovery and long-term care, integrating medical, psychological, and nutritional support. The session also discusses challenges in treatment-resistant cases and emerging therapeutic techniques such as neurofeedback, virtual reality, and nutritional psychiatry. As global prevalence rates rise, this topic urges mental health professionals to adopt innovative and compassionate practices in assessment, treatment, and relapse prevention.
