EATING DISORDERS with Dr. Marcella Raimondo, a clinical psychologist who specializes in ED.

For a decade in her teens and early twenties Marcella battled with anorexia nervosa. As a queer cisgender woman of color, she struggled in her recovery because her story did not mirror those in mainstream eating disorder textbooks and biographies. After reading the testimonials of women of color and queer women in A Hunger So Wide and So Deep, by Becky Thompson, she found voices that resonated with her own life experiences. She began to realize that a huge gap exists in the treatment services for underrepresented and underserved folks with eating disorders. Marcella’s life calling and social justice spirit came out of this experience. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lucia-matuonto/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lucia-matuonto/support
