Eating Disorder Therapy in Provo & Orem
Are your thoughts consumed by calories? Do you have a secret cycle of restriction or binges that controls your day? Tangible Therapy is here to help you.
Get treatment for your eating disorder
Eating disorders whisper lies that scream the loudest. They turn meals into battlegrounds, distort your reflection, and trap you in exhaustion and shame, even when life looks perfect on the outside.
At Tangible Mental Health, licensed counselors meet you in that chaos with compassionate, evidence-based therapy. We offer clarity and tools to quiet the noise and reclaim your life.
We offer:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Targets distorted thoughts about food and body image, helping replace unhealthy behaviors with balanced ones.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Builds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and mindful eating to manage binge urges.
Family-Based Treatment (FBT): Involves loved ones to support healthy eating patterns; ideal for teens and young adults.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Fosters self-compassion and values-based living beyond disorder symptoms.
Nutritional counseling integration: Pairs therapy with education on intuitive eating and meal planning.
Body image and trauma work: Uses EMDR or IFS to heal underlying issues fueling the disorder.
Imagine meals without dread, a body you trust again, and relationships no longer strained by secrets. Therapy delivers that freedom — reduced shame, stable weight, and genuine self-worth.
