Diagnostic Assessments and Targeted Therapy for Pre-Adolescent and Adolescent Eating and Weight Disorders

Even when presented with early signs of disordered eating or rapid weight gain or loss, most families wait until the problem has grown when treatment can be more resistant.

Parents need guidance with early intervention. A thorough evaluation is a major step to identifying pathways for prevention and treatment.

MTK provides Therapy and Assessments to help better understand why youth are experiencing a challenge. Our recommendations are individually designed to help your child and your family.

Diagnosis and Treatment for Pre-adolescent Children, Adolescents and Young Adults

We aim to prevent eating disorders and unhealthful weight gain, and give hope and direction to parents and children.
We believe it is important for you to understand that…  
Eating and weight concerns are rarely the result of a lack of willpower or self-discipline.

In fact, these conditions are often caused by a complex interplay of biology and environment that drive body size, emotions, behavior, and thinking. In some circumstances, these concerns are caused by an existing medical condition that requires treatment.

There are many professionals in this space.

What sets us apart is our decades of scientific research testing the therapies that we have adapted for eating and weight-related concerns in studies at top research institutions. We match this knowledge with our clinical experience to create an individualized, holistic approach for your family.

MTK harnesses wider prevention and treatment possibilities.
