Getting Started
It can be hard to take the first step to get help. We want to make it a little easier by letting you know what to expect.
Getting In Touch
Before making an appointment you can contact us with any questions you might have via phone, email or by using our online contact form. Your first contact will more than likely be with Kerry, our wonderful PA.
First Appointment
Before your first session, we’ll ask you to fill in a brief questionnaire about your current situation, what you would like, and when you are available for appointments. You do not need to do this, but it will help us match you to the most suitable clinician.
Session number and length
Treatment for BDD is typically 10-20 sessions, treatment for bulimia is typically 16 – 20 sessions, and treatment for anorexia is typically 40 sessions.
Physical health monitoring
Sometimes people require physical health monitoring because of their eating disorder. This may include blood tests, ECG, monitoring your pulse and blood pressure, or managing medication.
The Rising Challenge of Eating Disorders
Rising prevalence, growing demand for support, and the need for early intervention.
Over 1.25 million people in the UK are living with an eating disorder, with hospital admissions now at record highs. Rates among young people have risen sharply in recent years, and around one in four affected are male. These conditions can affect anyone, at any age, and carry serious health risks if left untreated.
Nearly half of UK adults also struggle with body image concerns, often fuelled by unrealistic media ideals. This growing crisis highlights the urgent need for early, expert-led care—something The London Centre delivers through compassionate, evidence-based treatment tailored to each individual.
