This week we are happy to welcome Dr. Lauren Muhlheim to The Hamilton Review Podcast! In this conversation Dr. Muhlheim shares important advice for parents about:

- How to recognize signs of an eating disorder in your child.

- Family based treatment for parents and their child dealing with an eating disorder.

- Diet culture and how it impacts families and what parents can do to minimize the impact.

- Dr. Muhlheim also discusses a newer eating disorder called - Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake disorder.

This is a very critical topic that hasn't been discussed on The Hamilton Review Podcast before. Dr. Muhlheim is an expert in her field and we hope that parents gain a lot from this episode.
