About This Eating Disorders Study in Auburn

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a new intervention (Promoting Resilience to Improve Disordered Eating; PRIDE) can decrease internalized stigma and increase the ability to cope effectively with stressors in sexual minority populations diagnosed with eating disorders. The main question it aims to answer is: Will an eating disorders treatment focused on decreasing internalized stigma and increasing sexual minority stress coping self efficacy in sexual minority populations? Participants Will * Complete a telephone screen with study staff to determine preliminary eligibility for the study * Undergo a behavioral eligibility screening that includes structured clinical interviewing in order to determine proper diagnosis of an eating disorder along with ensuring absence of non-eating disorder diagnoses * Complete self-report measures to determine study eligibility * Attend up to 14 weekly therapy sessions as part of the PRIDE intervention, where participants will work with qualified clinicians to address eating pathology and disordered body image along with developing effective strategies for coping with sexual minority stressors * Complete surveys upon completion of the intervention 3 and 6 months post follow-up
