NEW: Nutrition for Recovery: On The Journey

About the group:

This nutrition group is designed for individuals who are navigating long-standing eating disorders, are currently on a waitlist for formal treatment or have experienced a relapse following treatment. It offers a supportive space for participants to explore what nutrition for recovery can look like in their unique journeys. Session topics are participant-driven, reflecting the diverse needs and experiences of the group. As many participants have prior experience with formal eating disorder treatment, discussions often go beyond basic psychoeducation and skill development, delving into more nuanced aspects of recovery. Facilitators tailor each session to the group’s priorities, creating a flexible and responsive environment where a wide range of issues can be addressed. Open discussion is a cornerstone of the group, recognizing that participants bring valuable knowledge and lived experience to share. Sessions are professionally facilitated by a weight-inclusive, non-diet Registered Dietitian and run for 90 minutes each. While discussions may include detailed conversations about food, the group is designed to be a pro-recovery space for those ready to engage openly with the topic of nutrition.
 
Participants are asked to commit to the full 10-week program. No formal diagnosis is required, and there is no fee to join; however, donations are appreciated. Please note that this group is not a substitute for outpatient or inpatient treatment. It is strongly recommended that participants remain in regular contact with their primary care provider for medical monitoring throughout the group.
