Online Therapy in California and New York for Athletes and Eating Disorders
13.5% of athletes struggle with an eating disorder. Up to 45% of females and 19% of males have reported having an eating disorder.
Being an athlete and struggling with an eating disorder can come with its own unique set of challenges. The lines can become blurred between what is disordered and what are just the expectations of training.
Sports also come with their own culture that can put pressure on an athlete to have a certain body type or engage in eating patterns that can differ from those not training for an event or game.
Let's work together If you are finding yourself struggling with the expectations of your sport or not sure if what you are feeling or doing is considered an eating disorder. Maybe you are newly into recovery and trying to navigate the line between doing what you need for your recovery and meeting your athletic goals. Or, maybe you are someone who recognizes that they cannot continue at the elite level and need to navigate identity outside of your sport or how to incorporate what you love to do in a new way.
