Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is incredibly common among patients who have autism.
Dr. Julia Carmody, attending psychologist in the Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition at Boston Children’s Hospital explains how ARFID presents itself in patients with autism, how you can help treat & support them from psychological approaches, and how to make sure parents are key players in their child’s wellbeing.
