Secure, Private Help for Men with Eating Problems

I am realizing more and more the great disservice being done to men with eating disorders! There are very few therapists who will work with men. There are very few resources out there for men. This encourages men to keep their eating disorder a secret. Shame and embarrassment living in the shadows and not getting help. Seems like eating disorders have been considered a women’s disease.

Ridiculous!

I am here to tell you that it is not!  Males, heterosexual, homosexual get eating disorders for the same reasons that women do.

That is why I have decided to continue working with males with eating disorders.

I am offering a resource for men. If you are one of the men I am speaking about, take a risk and reach out.

There is no reason why you cannot conqueror your eating disorder and go on to live a healthy and happy life. All you have to do is ask for help.

My practice offers full confidentiality. You are safe . . . 626-335-0903

Men’s Eating Disorders – Now There’s Help

We used to think that an eating disorder was a female condition. Actually more and more in the later years men have become a sizable population dealing with eating disorders. More men need to seek out treatment without feeling shamed or embarrassed.

More and more men are feeling the pressure to be thin and look good, according to a presentation at the American Dietetic Association Food and Nutrition Conference in St. Louis.

“Males are taking on our unhealthy obsession with thinness and perfection, and as a result we are seeing an increased incidence in eating disorders in males” says Sondra Kronberg, MS, RD, CDN. Kronberg is the director and co-founder of Eating Disorder Associates Treatment and Referral Centers and has been treating clients with eating disorders for more than 25 years.

According to the National Eating Disorders Association, there are about 1 million men with serious eating disorders and tens of millions who have some form of eating disorders.
