Build on Successes: Recovery Skills Meal Coaching
Let’s face it: To a large extent, recovery from eating disorders or disordered eating is about, well, eating.
At a certain point, progress is significantly hindered when disordered eating behaviors persist. Yet making changes in this area can be so challenging. We get it. We understand how hard it is. We also understand what is needed to begin to make these changes in the outpatient environment.
Using a structured, behaviorally-based, skills-focused approach, we help you meet your eating and food specific recovery and treatment goals in a compassionate and accepting manner.
We work closely with your existing treatment team and help you translate the work in sessions to life outside, putting into motion the important work you’re doing with your treatment providers.
