Expertise in Binge Eating Disorder & Overeating

Dr Richard Jenkinson, a renowned clinical psychologist, brings to York an approach to treating binge eating and overeating that’s been homed by years of clinical experience and research with people with eating disorders. With extensive experience across various age groups and clinical conditions, Richard’s therapy sessions are a confluence of understanding, empathy, and scientifically-backed techniques.

The Approach
Dr Jenkinson’s therapy for binge eating and overeating involves a blend of CBT-E (enhanced cognitive-behavioural therapy), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

The treatment is person-centred and tailored to each individual’s needs.
