I see a dietician at the hospital. She's very nice and understanding of eating disorders. I also go to an eating disorder clinic, all out patient. They help you sort out your problems, challenge your thinking and help you work on past and current issues and weight gain. Mostly they focus on your thought process.
I think it would be really beneficial for you to seek out some help with this. I like seeing the dietician because I feel like I'm at least sort of accountable to answer to someone. Of course I'm not really, but that's how I see. I don't like letting people down so I try a little harder , knowing I will have to report back to her. She never acts dissappointed tho. She helps make sure that I am getting the right nutrition if not from food from supplements, she also helped me secure extra money from a nutritional supplement program because I'm on disability and cannot afford the added nutritional costs. All in all it has been a good experience.
Dietitians don't deal with the thoughts towards foods tho, they might help a little but they are not trained in that. They will make sure you know what you are required for food and nutritional intake. They will make sure that if you are malnourished that you know how and are getting the right things to correct this. Seeing some one additional for therapy who specializes in eating disorders would be your best combination. My psychiatrist got me into the Ed clinic because it is beyond his scope as well, not that he does any therapy anyways. But you need to find someone who has a good grasp on Ed's.
