What We Treat

We support all eating disorders.
You cannot tell someone's struggle by how they look.

Anorexia Nervosa

Restriction of intake leading to low body weight. Fear of gaining weight or becoming overweight. Denial or seriousness of low weight.

Bulimia Nervosa

Recurrent episodes of binge eating with compensatory behaviours (vomiting, fasting, excessive exercise, use of laxatives)

Binge Eating Disorder

Recurrent episodes of binge eating with marked distress occurring on average at least once a week for 3 months.

Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder

All criteria for Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, or Binge Eating Disorder are met without significant weight disturbance or with different frequency of behaviours. This is the often misdiagnosed, passed over and ‘forgotten’ group of sufferers. These are people who are in normal weight bodies and feel ‘not sick enough’ or ‘not good enough’ to warrant treatment. If you struggle with your food, body image or exercise, you are absolutely deserving of care and support.

ARFID

Intake is limited based on either the sensory characteristics of food (texture, taste, smell, appearance) or past negative experiences with food.

Exercise Disorder

Clients engage in exercise that significantly interferes with important activities, occurs at inappropriate times or in inappropriate settings, or when the individual continues to exercise despite injury or other medical complications.

Orthorexia

Compulsive checking of nutrition and ingredient labels, marked increase in concerns about the ‘health’ value of food consumed, inability to eat anything other than a narrow group of foods deemed ‘clean’ or ‘pure’, high level of distress if unable to know nutritional content or ingredients of food. *Not yet recognized by the DSM however is commonly recognized among eating disorder professionals as a subset diagnosis.

Stories of Hope

Before I came to Recovered Living, I was struggling to make progress in strengthening my healthy self and was stuck in a cycle of self-destruction. Since coming here, I have achieved so many things I didn't think I would ever be able to do again.

RLNZ Client

I am so grateful to have the opportunity to come to Recovered Living. The months before I came here had been very tough and dark. I struggled to see any way out of my eating disorder rut, but since I was welcomed here, I have been able to see flickers of light in between the darkness.
