Restrictive forms of eating disorders
We work with conditions where food restriction, fear of weight gain, rigid food rules, body control and distorted self-perception are dominant.
Learn moreRedefine - treatment and rehabilitation center
Redefine specializes in comprehensive recovery from eating disorders. We approach EDs as a multifactorial condition where the mind, body, emotions, behavior and life context are interconnected. Our goal is not only to reduce symptoms, but to help a person restore connection with themselves, their body, their needs and their own life.
Areas of support
What we work with
At Redefine, we work with eating disorders as a broad spectrum of conditions. We consider not only clinical diagnoses, but also behavioral patterns, emotional processes, body perception, anxiety, shame, control and the person’s life context.
Overeating and loss of control
We support people with episodes of overeating, emotional eating, a sense of losing control, shame, self-criticism and the cycle of restriction - breakdown - guilt.

Compensatory and mixed forms
We work with bulimia, OSFED, UFED and conditions where overeating is combined with vomiting, laxatives, excessive exercise or other forms of compensation.

ARFID and selective eating
We support people with strong food avoidance, sensory sensitivity, fear of certain textures, smells, tastes or negative experiences with food.

Psychological manifestations of eating disorders
We work with obsessive thoughts about food, body and weight, body dysmorphia, self-criticism, perfectionism, shame and difficulties with emotional regulation.

Co-occurring conditions and neurodivergence

Eating disorders require a comprehensive approach
Recovery needs to consider physical state, emotions, thinking, behavior and the influence of the environment.
We view eating disorders as a condition that requires a systemic and multidisciplinary approach. That is why each patient is supported by a team of specialists who combine physical, psycho-emotional and behavioral work into one therapeutic process.
Treatment formats
Eating disorder treatment formats
We combine therapeutic, body-based, nutritional and medical work so that support is not only about stabilizing eating, but also about a deeper understanding of the self, the body and personal reactions.
The support plan is created individually after the initial consultation.

Psychoeducation
We help explain how thoughts about the self, body and food are formed, and why control or avoidance can become a way to cope with one’s state.
- understanding inner processes and reactions
- working with anxiety, shame and control
02
Body work
We help return the body from an object of control to an important source of support through body-based and sensory practices.

- restoring contact with sensations
03
Nutritional support
We work toward regular, sufficient and safe eating without pressure, punishment or rigid control.
- reducing fear and anxiety around food

How we work
A process that helps you understand yourself better
Understand
We begin with a careful analysis of the person’s condition, request, eating behavior, emotions and what may be behind the symptoms.
Explain
We help identify how thoughts about the self and body, stress reactions, control, avoidance or overeating may work.
Restore
We gradually build safer eating patterns, body connection and more flexible ways to cope with tension.
Support
We track progress, consider the physical state and gently adjust the path without pressure or judgment.
Support and consistency
Recovery plan
We build recovery as a consistent process: from stabilizing eating patterns and reducing anxiety to a better understanding of the self, connection with the body and the development of safer ways to cope with difficult states.
Gentle support without pressure, judgment or rigid control.
What you receive
A gradual
return to yourself
We see recovery not as achieving a perfect result, but as a path where more understanding, stability and freedom appear in the relationship with food, the body and one’s own life.
- More clarity about yourself
- Inner support during change
- A more flexible relationship with food and the body
- More contact with your own life
SUPPORT FOR PARENTS
Family as part of recovery
Recovery from an eating disorder does not happen in isolation, so we work not only with the person, but also with their loved ones. We help the family better understand the process, reduce pressure and build calmer, more stable support.
Support for families who want to act with care, consistency and without pressure.
