Interested in speaking with someone about CHEAR’s Binge Eating Disorder Treatment Program?


At CHEAR, we embrace a multifaceted approach, recognizing that every individual is unique and inherently worthy. We understand that complex factors like thoughts, physiological responses to highly palatable food, and emotions can influence eating behaviors independently or in concert and impact overall well-being. We focus on helping each person become their best self, not just in terms of physical health but in emotional and psychological well-being too.

The models we use target risk factors for binge eating and overeating, including emotional risk factors (DBT), unhealthy thoughts (CBT) and neurobiological responding to food that drives overeating (ROC). It’s like the three legs of a stool-by providing the three methods we provide a program that gives the best chance of change.

Our research and treatment programs go beyond the conventional focus on weight loss and dieting. We have novel methods targeting neurobiological (brain) responses to food, and other cognitive methods that enhance our programs. We’re committed to fostering overall health, helping people be the best version of themselves, and empowering them to engage in and embrace their best lives. At CHEAR, it’s not just about the numbers on a scale; it’s about the whole person and their journey towards a balanced, healthy life.
