My ex t was not experienced in eating disorders. I lost a lot of weight over the ears I seen her and she never once mentioned it!
I decided to bring it up one day. Big mistake- she had no clue what to say or do and tried to change the subject to something else. She basically told me to just eat more food. Not helpful-at all.
I think a lot of ts are not properly trained with eating disorders and a it’d then at all costs. It can be dangerous to treat someone with anorexia if you are not experienced. I would ask yourself what you need from a therapists around this and if your t is not providing it I would move on!
Giving advice on dieting tips is not helpful at all and it sounds like you really would like her to just listen to how hard it is for you and the emotions and feelings that go along with this x
