Assessment | Services | The Bridge | Multidisciplinary specialist eating disorder service for children and adults based in Manchester.

Assessment

We offer immediate access to our counselling and dietetic services as a starting point to your journey with us.

We offer assessments with both our counselling and dietetics service with our qualified and registered team. By offering these assessments we are able to ensure your treatment plan is bespoke to you

Assessment sessions vary in length but you can typically see a dietitian assessment lasting 90-minutes, and an initial counselling session lasting 50-minutes. We believe in giving you control when it comes to your involvement with us, so if you only want to access one of our services to support you, this is completely fine and your choice to make.

Assessment sessions will involve discussing patient history, eating habits, family history, your goals with our service, and physical & mental health. This starting point will also allow you to ask us any questions about the treatment and what to expect.

Dietitian Assessments will involve assessing your nutritional status and discuss eating plans available to promote your healthy wellbeing. Our counselling team is trained in interventions which aid in the recovery of eating disorders.

By providing our services in an outpatient setting, we are able to make sure our service is accessible to more people affected and offer help and support before the illness reaches a critical point. All members of our team are professionally qualified to ensure you and your loved ones are in safe hands. We offer our service equipped with professionals that will help you overcome your eating disorder, so you can live a healthy and happy life.
