Themes I have noticed, after working for more than 20 years, with individuals struggling with eating disorders, have been the similarities shared by these individuals. These have included wanting and struggling to have deep/genuine relationships with others, wanting to be loved and accepted by others, and being able to be assertive and get their needs met. In addition, many seem to fluctuate between feeling "too much" and "not enough" as it relates to their own emotions, emotions of others, identifying their strengths, managing connectedness in relationships and taking care of themselves. These are all struggles that can be improved with therapy.
