What Are the Warning Signs of an Eating Disorder? A Psychologist's Guide

Everybody Eats, Everybody Has a Body: A Conversation About Eating DisordersEating disorders affect far more people than most of us realize, and the warning signs can be easy to miss. In this episode, hosts Dr. Christopher Villarreal and Dr. Deb Anderson are joined by Dr. Stephanie Albers, developmental psychologist and licensed mental health counselor, to break down the difference between disordered eating and eating disorders, explore who is actually at risk, and share practical guidance for parents on building healthy body attitudes at home. Dr. Albers also walks through what to watch for, when to seek help, and where to turn, including the national nonprofit FEAST, a resource run by caregivers who've been there. Because these conversations don't need to be a big moment - they just need to happen.
