FAQ’s

Frequently Asked Questions

If your relationship with food, exercise, or your body is causing distress or affecting your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Many people also experience intrusive thoughts or repetitive rumination, ongoing cycles of worry or self-criticism about eating, weight, or appearance. These patterns are very common in eating disorders and can make it harder to focus, relax, or feel in control.

Research shows that repetitive, negative thinking can intensify distress and maintain unhelpful behaviours, so seeking help early can make recovery smoother and more effective. You don’t need to reach crisis point or have a formal diagnosis to reach out – if something doesn’t feel right, that’s reason enough to ask for support.

You can contact us directly. Self-referrals are always welcome. We also accept referrals from GPs, psychiatrists, or other healthcare professionals, but a formal referral isn’t required to see us.

We understand that when someone asks for help, timing really matters. We usually aim to offer an initial appointment within a couple of weeks, depending on your preferences, location, and clinician availability. If you’re able to be flexible, for example, with remote appointments and timings, we can often arrange your first session within just a few days. Our team will respond promptly and do everything possible to get you the right support as soon as you’re ready.

We’ve also recently introduced a small selection of Fast-Track appointments, which can be booked online immediately, offering even quicker access to specialist support when you need it most.

Your first session will be a comprehensive assessment with one of our clinicians. This is a chance to explore your experiences, discuss your goals, and begin shaping a personalised care plan. It’s a collaborative, compassionate process – there’s no pressure or judgement, just a safe space to be heard and understood.

Yes. We provide both in-person treatment at our clinics in Central London, Richmond, Hertford, and Manchester, and online appointments for those who prefer remote care. This flexibility ensures treatment is accessible and fits around your life.

Many private health insurance providers cover part or all of the cost of eating disorder treatment. We currently work with WPA, Cigna, Aviva, and several smaller insurers, but we’re not currently able to accept AXA, Bupa, or Vitality. Our admin team can help you check whether your policy is eligible and provide any documentation your insurer may need. Please contact us if you have any questions about using insurance for your treatment.

Absolutely. Parents, carers, and family members are always welcome to reach out for advice or to explore options. We’re huge advocates of family support and fully recognise how difficult it can be to see a loved one struggle. Please don’t underestimate the impact this can have on you and the wider family network – support is available for you too. 

If you have any concerns about someone you care about, or simply want to ask questions, our team is here to listen and help. We also offer ad hoc parent/carer support sessions, providing guidance and reassurance at any stage of your loved one’s journey.
