Eating Disorder Therapy in Brussels

Finding specialist eating disorder treatment in Brussels, in English, at the clinical level that serious eating disorders require, is genuinely difficult. The Belgian health system provides some services, but English-language provision with genuine specialist depth — particularly for adults, and particularly for men — is effectively absent.

This practice offers specialist eating disorder therapy in Brussels, online, conducted in English, by a practitioner with doctoral-level expertise in this field.

The Expertise

Dr Jacquet holds a Doctorate of Professional Practice with doctoral research focused specifically on eating disorders. He is the only person in Europe to hold a doctorate in this area. His clinical approach is integrative and Jungian — concerned not with symptom management but with understanding what the eating behaviour is doing: what it protects against, what it communicates, what it would require to address its underlying function.

He works with the full range: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, orthorexia, and the male eating disorder presentations that most clinical services fail to identify or take seriously.

Male Eating Disorders

Philippe’s doctoral research was specifically focused on eating disorders in men. Men with eating disorders are consistently under-treated — often told directly or indirectly that what they are experiencing does not qualify as an eating disorder. This practice provides specialist treatment without those qualifications, to men in Brussels whose experience has not been met with appropriate clinical attention elsewhere.

Online Sessions

Sessions take place via secure video link. The quality of therapeutic work is not diminished by the online format. Contact the practice directly to arrange an initial consultation — there is no waiting list and no referral needed.
