Warren Ward's patients are often critically ill with diseases like anorexia.
Warren says asking someone with anorexia to eat is like asking an arachnophobe to put their hand in a jar full of spiders.
As a psychiatrist, Warren uses psychotherapy to help his patients.
He encourages those with an eating disorder to approach their mental illness as one part of their whole self.
His interest in the mystery of human nature informed his study of philosophy, and led him to examine the love lives of philosophers.
