Episode 123: Dr. Tamara Pryor: Treatment of Eating Disorders and Substance Use Disorders

Today, Kathy is welcomed by Dr. Tamara Pryor, and their conversation is about considerations in treatment when eating disorders and substance use disorders co-occur. They talk about how eating disorders and substance use disorders often play a similar role for individuals, and they “work until they don’t.” Also, check out Dr. Pryor’s article in the 2019 Gurze Catalogue on this topic as well as on our website EDcatalogue.com.
