I have been a passionate team member of Eating Disorder Support Network (EDSN) since 2016. At EDSN, I have dedicated my work to empowering clients by seeking out who they truly are as individuals, assisting them in connecting with their true identities through skill building, goal setting and follow-through, accountability in their recovery journeys, providing meal support, facilitating recovery groups, and strengthening key coping strategies that may or may not have yet been established. Coping strategies I focus on might include basic living skills, such as grocery shopping, job searching, connecting to community support, and so on. I provide meal support through supervised lunch groups, day-to-day individual coaching, weekly eating disorder recovery support groups, and the monthly art group called, Let’s CrEATe! I also act as a liaison with treatment teams, bridging gaps in communication and fulfilling an often missing link in treatment.
