Today we delved into a crucially important topic: eating disorders in teenagers with our special guest Libby Supan. Libby is a licensed marriage and family therapist, certified intuitive eating counselor, and recovered from an eating disorder she had for 20 years. This is the reason why she’s extremely passionate about the work that she does. Libby has a therapy and coaching practice. She works with people who struggle with food and body issues. She’s on a mission to help as many people as possible relearn how to eat intuitively and live a life of food freedom. As you know, eating disorders in teenagers is a complex issue that can leave parents feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to support their teenage children. We explored Libby's personal and professional stories with the hope of helping parents and teenagers to better understand the warning signs and most importantly, how to open up healthy communication with your each other, and seek appropriate emotional support. We also discussed resources available to help families navigate this challenging journey.
