Welcome to The Center for Eating Disorders at Sheppard Pratt.

Eating disorders are complex and often unpredictable, but they are treatable. That's why the Center for Eating Disorders at Sheppard Pratt, located in Baltimore, Md., is here.

The purpose of this web site is to give you background about eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder and compulsive overeating. It also provides information about the different treatment programs we offer, such as cognitive, occupational, art, family and nutritional therapies.

The site is also a terrific way for you to talk with other people affected by eating disorders, as we have an online discussion forum and blog. In addition, if you are concerned that a friend, family member, or you have an eating disorder, please take our online eating
disorder assessment.

If you have any questions after viewing our web site, feel free to email or call us at 410-938-5252.
