Summary

This study tests a type of talking therapy (exposure-based CBT) for adults who have both functional dyspepsia (stomach pain or fullness after eating) and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) with weight loss. The goal is to see if the therapy helps people eat more comfortably and reduces symptoms. About 50 adults will be randomly assigned to either the therapy or usual care.
