Welcome to Eating & Behavioral Health Associates

Specialized, evidence-based, compassionate eating disorder treatment.

Specialized, evidence-based, compassionate eating disorder treatment.

At Eating & Behavioral Health Associates, we provide specialized, evidence-based treatment for eating disorders — and nothing else takes priority. We are the leading group practice in Columbus and Cincinnati, Ohio where every therapist is a trained eating disorder specialist. This means every client is met with deep expertise and science-driven care from day one.

Our clinicians are trained in and deliver full-protocol Family-Based Treatment (FBT) and Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT-E) when indicated. We never blend, dilute, or guess — because evidence shows that starting with full-protocol care gives clients the best chance at long-term recovery. If first-line treatments aren’t effective or the right fit, we thoughtfully transition to second-line approaches based on each client’s unique needs and clinical evidence. While these protocols are structured, our care is always identity-affirming, inclusive, weight-neutral, culturally humble, and trauma-informed — because effective treatment isn’t just evidence-based, it’s rooted in a deep respect for each person’s lived experience.

Why choose us

At Eating & Behavioral Health Associates, we don’t just treat symptoms — we walk with you toward a life that’s more balanced, satisfying, and fulfilling.

Whether you’re navigating an eating disorder, anxiety, trauma, or a chronic health condition, our team is here to help you:

  • Create your best life — one that feels more grounded, meaningful, and sustainable.
  • Find freedom from the extremes in your emotional and mental states that lead to avoidance, imbalance, and mindlessness.
  • Choose helpful, intentional coping strategies — instead of harmful or avoidant behaviors that no longer serve you.

  • End the cycles of self-blame, guilt, and shame that keep you stuck.

  • Reconnect to your values and reestablish life goals that reflect who you truly are.

Why patients & providers trust us

  • We follow scientific-driven, evidence-based care — not eclectic blends or diluted models.

  • Integrated support for co-occurring issues like PTSD, anxiety, depression, and chronic illness — so you can get comprehensive care under one roof.

  • Inclusive, HAES-informed, weight-neutral treatment that centers the whole person, not just symptoms.

Whether you’re a parent seeking help for your child, a college student struggling away from home, an adult navigating trauma and recovery, or a provider looking for a trusted referral — you’re in the right place.

Our specialists proudly serve residents of Ohio, as well as many other states through licensure. Please see the map to determine which therapists serve out-of-state residents through telehealth.

Some but not all insurances cover telehealth sessions or may have limitations.

Currently due to licensing laws, the individual receiving teletherapy from our practice must be physically located within certain states. If you live in (or are visiting) these states, our experts can provide teletherapy for you.
