We are thrilled to have Dr. Seda Ebrahimi on the podcast today, as Kathy and Dr. Ebrahimi discuss eating disorders in adolescents. Adolescence is a time for change, and they talk about how to distinguish “normal” changes, from eating disorder behaviors, and take a deep dive into eating disorders and adolescents.

CEDC is a nationally renowned specialty center providing a full continuum of care to individuals who struggle with eating disorders.

Dr. Ebrahimi was the Director of the Eating Disorders Treatment Program at McLean Hospital from 1993-1998 and has been an Instructor of Psychiatry at Harvard University since 1993.
