Support for carers of a loved one with an Eating Disorder.
Caring for a loved one with an Eating Disorder can be a huge physical and emotional toll. From my own experience, I know that a carer’s wellbeing plays a critical part in being best placed to support a loved one with an eating disorder, outside of the therapeutic setting.
I offer my services to support carers at a reduced rate of £35.00 per hour. I can help you with all of the following:
Support you in fostering your confidence in the role of carer. E.g. Reframing unhelpful thinking styles and developing problem-solving skills
Developing skills to promote good communication and strategies to help reduce conflict.
Implementing skills that support your loved one’s recovery. Such as meal planning* and appropriate goal setting.
Managing your stress and developing supportive coping skills. Improving sleep quality/sleep routines.
Ensuring your own dietary needs are being met so that you have the energy to care for your loved one.
Helping you continue to make time for recreation, movement, and connection with friends and family.
