This is how treatment works for young people with anorexia

Petra Johansson Hallgren, who is a counselor at the anorexia unit in Jönköping, meets young people who have problems with eating disorders.

In the clip, she explains how the treatment is done for those who are in the most urgent need of care and receive so-called day care, where they spend the whole day in a care clinic.

Those who, in an initial assessment, are considered to be able to cope in their home environment with the help of their family receive outpatient care, where they come into the reception for talk therapy and eating support.

Because young people's problems are often detected early through parents and schools, there are good conditions for recovery.
