Many young women suffer from eating disorders. But boys and older adults are also not immune to disordered eating.

Finding a therapist who is willing to take on the long and difficult treatment process for eating disorders can be difficult, and if you need an outpatient or residential program in Vermont, you have very few options.

We’ll talk to Bree Greenberg-Benjamin, Director of the Vermont Center for Integrative Therapy, and Dr. Marcia Herrin, author of The Parent’s Guide to Eating Disorders.

And we’ll hear the story of an Amish woman who made the difficult choice to leave her insular community and sought refuge in Vermont.

Broadcast live on Monday, March 17th at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
