Our Eating Disorders team includes a consulting paediatrician, registered dietitians, social workers, and nursing staff who work collaboratively to provide comprehensive, family centred care.

• Athletes experiencing disordered eating or Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S)
• Feeding difficulties associated with anxiety, sensory sensitivities, or medical conditions
• Co-occurring concerns such as anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive symptoms, and challenges related to growth, nutrition, and development

Our team uses evidence based, multidisciplinary treatment approaches tailored to each child, adolescent, and family. Services may include:

• Comprehensive medical, nutrition, and psychosocial assessment
• Collaborative medical monitoring
• Nutrition assessment, counselling, and meal support
• Family Based Therapy (FBT) and caregiver guidance
• Individual therapy and skills based interventions
• Group programs and workshops for youth and caregivers, when appropriate

Our goal is to support medical stability, nutritional rehabilitation, psychological well-being, and a return to age appropriate functioning while empowering families to play an active role in recovery.

Please ask your child’s primary care doctor to send a referral request to Boomerang Health. We will then contact you to book an initial appointment. Contact us for further information about our clinic.
