Webinar, August 14th, 2025, with McLean Hospital in Belmont, MA. People with eating disorders struggle to maintain healthy relationships with food and their bodies. Conditions such as anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), while treatable, can be life threatening if unaddressed.
* So, how can someone concerned about disordered eating—their own or a loved one’s—learn to separate fact from fiction when it comes to understanding when and how to seek help? And what are the options for effective treatment?
* David J. Alperovitz, PsyD, provides an overview of eating disorders, shares tips for recognizing key warning signs, and answers questions about how anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and ARFID are diagnosed and treated.
About the speaker: David J. Alperovitz, PsyD, has over 25 years of experience working at McLean Hospital, primarily with individuals with OCD, eating disorders, trauma histories, and dissociative symptoms. He is currently the program director of McLean’s Klarman Eating Disorders Center and an assistant professor of psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
