How would I go about becoming an eating disorder therapist/specialist?

Question

I'll be a senior this year and I've always wanted to be some kind of therapist, but I've always ALWAYS wanted to specialize in eating disorder treatment. would I need to major in clinical psychology..or psychiatry? or neither of those? I just need to know the right path I'd need to get on.. thanks!!

Answer 1

most people accually have been through it before going after it. but i see you have passion and want to help others with this illness so i would go to your local communitie college and see about enrolling in anything they have to offer in this field. best of luck
