How do you choose between using an NHS service or seeking out private treatment? In this episode, we will explore the issue of treatment choice and take a look at the options that might be available to you in each treatment setting. As a professional, I see many families who find themselves trying to make such a decision, trying to navigate the wealth of services that offer wide-ranging treatments for eating disorders and the common factor is that they all want the best for their child. In this episode, I'll help you to think about how to make the best choice for you and we'll consider some of the possible benefits and pitfalls that you need to look out for.

There is no hard and fast rule about which is the best option - this is very much an individual choice based on your unique family needs. But it's very important that you make the right choice and to do this, you'll need lots of information... so sit back and listen...
