Therapist for my 18 year old daughter Eating Disorder

My daughter is going through a tough time with not eating and then feeling like she can't stop eating. She's about 5'9" tall and about 70Kg.

I got in touch with her GP who gave her a useless helpline and offered no support whatsoever. I need to get a private therapist to help her.

Please can you recommend an online therapist with a strong track record, who will actively tease out the root cause of the problem, with an action plan to address the underlying issues.

Thanks so much for your help.

I’ve heard good things about Pam Virdi who specialises in EMDR therapy for eating disorders of various types. She has written a well respected book in the area
