Expert Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT-E) for Eating Disorders in Manchester
Beginning Your Journey to Recovery
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps individuals recognise negative thoughts, identify behaviour patterns, and develop strategies to cope with and challenge these thoughts.
CBT-E is the leading treatment for adults with eating disorders, specifically focusing on the thoughts and feelings surrounding eating, weight, and body image. This approach emphasises education to reshape beliefs about food and the body, using tools such as:
Food Diaries: Track your eating habits and emotions.
Therapeutic Weigh-Ins: Monitor weight in a supportive environment.
Body Image Work: Address and improve your perception of your body.
We’re here to provide support tailored to your individual needs as you navigate your recovery journey. Taking that first step is an important move toward positive change, and we're ready to support you along the way.
