from Psych Talk · host Dr. Jessica Rabon
In today's episode of Psych Talk I chat with Elian Beattie, LMHC, LCMHC about the intersection between eating disorders and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). We start the episode by defining various eating disorders, as well as what OCD is (and is not). Elian discusses the intersection between eating disorders and OCD and why the two disorders have such high co-morbidity. She discusses some common symptoms and behaviors seen in both eating disorders and OCD, as well as how both reinforce and contribute to the maintenance of one another. Elian also discusses how one can tell if certain behaviors are driven by OCD versus and eating disorder, and describes various treatment for treating co-morbid OCD and eating disorders.
