Psychologist for Eating Disorders in Valencia
Recover your physical and emotional well-being
Specialists in the treatment and resolution of eating disorders and obesity.
Eating disorders involve complex symptoms related to food and body image distortion. A person may learn to regulate their emotions and conflicts through food — either by overeating, not eating, excessively controlling their diet, or binge eating followed by vomiting.
Sometimes, eating is not just about eating. Food stops being just food. There are days when controlling what you eat feels like the only way to feel safe. Or moments when you can’t stop eating, even if you don’t understand why, followed by feelings of guilt, fear, and shame. Sometimes, the mirror becomes an enemy and the body a burden. That hurts too. A lot.
Benefits of Consulting Expert Psychologists in Eating Disorders in Valencia
Identification and Management of Symptoms
In addressing eating disorders, it’s not only about identifying behaviors such as restriction, binge eating, induced vomiting, or obsession with body image. Behind each of these symptoms lies a message, a story, and a need that has not found another way to be expressed
Improvement of Quality of Life
Eating disorders can affect many areas of life: energy, mood, self-esteem, relationships… Gradually, they can pull you away from what once gave your life meaning, leaving you with a sense of exhaustion, disconnection, or an unexplainable emptiness.
Prevention of Future Problems
Therapeutic work is not limited to relieving the symptoms that hurt today. It also allows you to look inward and understand what lies behind them: which wounds remain open, which needs were unmet, and what story has shaped your relationship with your body and food.
Frequently Asked Questions about Eating Disorder Therapy in Valencia
What signs indicate that I might be suffering from an eating disorder (ED)?
Sudden weight changes, obsession with food or body image, feeling guilty after eating, social withdrawal, or behaviors such as extreme fasting or induced vomiting can be warning signs.
Do you work with adolescents with eating disorders (ED)?
Yes, we work with both adults and adolescents. In the case of minors, the treatment includes family guidance to support the process from a comprehensive approach tailored to developmental needs. We have clinical experience working with young people in Valencia.
Is it possible to combine in-person therapy in Valencia with online sessions?
Yes, we offer a flexible approach. You can attend therapy at our center in Valencia and, if needed, combine it with online sessions to ensure continuity of treatment—especially during difficult times or if you live outside the city center.
How long does treatment for an eating disorder (ED) last?
The duration varies depending on the type of disorder, the severity, and individual progress. At our clinic in Valencia, we design personalized and realistic intervention plans with specific goals that are regularly reviewed together with the person.
Do I need a medical diagnosis to start therapy?
It is not essential to have a prior diagnosis. If you suspect that you or someone close to you is developing an eating disorder, you can come directly to a consultation. Our team in Valencia will assess the situation and propose the most appropriate approach from the very first session.

Esta yendo bien, me ha resultado de mucha ayuda para el tema inicial por el que acudí, estoy más tiempo del que esperaba, pero, por diversos asuntos personales han salido nuevos problemas que ha habido que tratar y en ello estoy. AgradecidoPublicado en Google Patricia Ruiz FosTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Empecé mi terapia en el centro, sino recuerdo mal, el pasado noviembre, por recomendación de una psicóloga conocida. Al exponer mi caso, me recomendaron hacerla con Mayte. Desde la primera sesión sentí la conexión que necesitaba con ella. Cuando he tenido algún problema con ir presencialmente a la clínica, me han cambiado la sesión de manera online sin ningún tipo de presión. Tanto Mayte (mi terapeuta) como Rosa (la secretaria del centro) siempre han comprendido y apoyado mis decisiones. Y, aunque todavía me queda por trabajar, sé que junto a Mayte, conseguiré salir de esto. Agradecida se queda corto ❤️Publicado en Google Ana JTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Sara y su equipo son un 10. La mejor decisión que he tomado en la vida. Gracias por todo lo que hacéis.
