Specialties: Maudsley Parents was created in 2006 by parents who helped their children recover from an eating disorder with family-based treatment, to offer hope and help to other families confronting eating disorders. We offer information on eating disorders and family-based treatment, family stories of recovery, supportive parent-to-parent advice, and treatment information for families who opt for family-based Maudsley treatment. 

Approaches:

• Devoted exclusively to eating disorders in youth

• The Maudsley Approach - The Maudsley approach can mostly be construed as an intensive outpatient treatment where parents play an active and positive role in order to: Help restore their child’s weight to normal levels expected given their adolescent’s age and height; hand the control over eating back to the adolescent, and; encourage normal adolescent development through an in-depth discussion of these crucial developmental issues as they pertain to their child.

• Weight restoration

• Returning control over eating to the adolescent

• Establishing healthy adolescent identity
