Group Therapy for Eating Disorders
There’s nothing about this process that doesn't suck, but you don’t have to do it alone.
Oftentimes, a group setting can provide a wonderful level of support and a sense of community among those who join. Support groups can be a great way to understand what others are going through, share stories, and create room for self-discovery and healing that carries on outside of these group sessions.
There’s something really powerful about hearing from others who have shared experiences, whether you yourself are struggling with an eating disorder or you are the family or friend of a loved one who is struggling with an eating disorder.
We are currently running the following groups:

Maybe you aren’t even sure that you want to let go of all aspects of the eating disorder, or maybe you feel done with it but don’t know how to get through letting go.
Sometimes trying to recover from an eating disorder can feel like a lonely and isolated process, where trying to get people to understand what you have to deal with every day, to get the support you need, seems impossible.
Here, you can have a space to share and be understood without explanation or judgment.
This group is primarily process-focused where you can share your struggles, ask questions, get feedback, and gain or offer support.
