A Deep Dive into Bariatric Surgery and Eating Disorders, with Lauren Marie Aron (Highly Specialist Psychotherapist)
from The Eating Disorder Therapist · host HARRIET FREW
Today I am talking to Lauren Marie Aron, who is a Highly Specialist Psychotherapist and Director and Founder of the Hope Space in Putney, London. The Hope Space is a sanctuary and safe space to support people with disordered eating through therapies. Lauren’s passion lies in treating clients who struggle with a disordered relationship with food and body. In her work, she utilises a range of therapeutic methods, incorporating the principles of sound social work and integrating Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. Additionally, she has a strong interest in CBT-E (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Eating Disorders). Lauren also integrates Transactional Analysis to explore how our interactions with others influence our experiences. Furthermore, she utilizes EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to address trauma and reprocess negative core beliefs that can impact your life. In the episode today, Lauren is going to do a deep dive into bariatric surgery and eating disorders. This is an area that is not talked about enough, and we know that many people struggle with eating disorders before and after surgery. Lauren discusses the prevalence of eating disorders among individuals considering or undergoing bariatric surgery. She delves into the necessary screening and assessment that is needed. Lauren explores the complex interplay between bariatric surgery and eating disorders, considering psychological, emotional and behavioural aspects. She talks about post surgery challenges and the importance of collaborative care. There’s so much value packed in here. This is a must-listen-to for anyone on a journey with bariatric surgery. I hope that you find this helpful.
