Help for Eating Disorders | Eating Disorder Info

Welcome to the Kartini Clinic for Disordered Eating, the only medically-based eating disorder clinic in the Pacific Northwest specializing exclusively in the treatment of children and young adults, ages 6 to 21.

Kartini Clinic was established in 1998 to serve children and young adults who suffer from eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorders, food phobia and selective eating, as well as those whose disordered eating contributes to obesity.

This web site is designed to help concerned parents, primary care physicians, teachers, coaches and counselors understand the facts behind these serious illnesses, how to recognize them and what can be done for those who suffer from them. But first, please take a moment to watch our diagnostic video, Spotting the Tiger, about how to spot early symptoms of anorexia in children.
