You can embrace the freedom and joy of a balanced, fear-free relationship with food in a nurturing, healing environment.
What Causes ARFID to Develop?
ARFID can start for many different reasons. Some people have strong sensory sensitivities to:
- Food textures
- Smells
- Tastes
- How food looks
These things can feel overwhelming or even scary. Others develop a real fear of bad things happening, like choking, vomiting, or stomach pain.
ARFID often shows up alongside other challenges, like:
- Autism
- ADHD
- Anxiety
- OCD
- Past trauma
- Early feeding problems
- Stomach issues like acid reflux
At Victory Bay, we understand these causes in our ARFID treatment program. We help you or your loved one work through them with caring support.
About Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder
What Is the Best Treatment for ARFID?
There's no single best treatment for ARFID because everyone is different. The most helpful approach is personalized and brings in several types of support. Many experts recommend cognitive behavioral therapy designed for ARFID, called CBT-AR.
Victory Bay's avoidant restrictive food intake disorder treatment program offers this full, whole-person care. We have options from residential stays to outpatient support, with:
- Nutritional help
- Staff-guided meals
- A kind environment to rebuild healthy eating habits and mealtime confidence
