Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder characterised by recurrent episodes of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviours such as self-induced vomiting, laxative misuse, or excessive exercise. Those affected often experience intense shame and a profound sense of loss of control.

Dr. Robert Bergonzi’s practice in Milan offers specialist psychotherapy for the treatment of bulimia. Our therapeutic approach addresses the psychological, emotional, and relational dimensions of the disorder. Treatment aims to interrupt the binge-purge cycle, explore the deeper meanings behind disordered eating, and help the person develop a healthier relationship with food.

The therapeutic pathway includes an initial assessment, regular individual sessions, and — where appropriate — collaboration with medical professionals. The goal is to restore the person’s sense of control over their eating behaviour and their emotional wellbeing.

If you or someone you know is affected by bulimia, contact our Milan practice for an initial consultation.
