My 9 Biggest Lessons In Eating Disorder Recovery

In this video, I do a deep dive into my 9 biggest lessons in eating disorder recovery. I explore: - 1. The importance of holding onto hope and pursuing different recovery routes, leaning into self-trust. 2. Symptoms work might need to happen first, to get out of restriction and all the mental and physical consequences of this. 3. The value of regular eating and balanced meals. 4. Reintroducing forbidden foods with safety and structure. 5. Dealing with the roots of the problem and processing emotional issues and trauma. 6. Softening the inner critic and working to build self-compassion. 7. Building robust body image. 8. The importance of healthy relationships. 9. Sculpting a life that is fulfiling and purposeful, beyond the eating disorder. 🌐 If you're looking for more support in your recovery journey, you can explore my work here: https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/  💬 Have you used psychological formulation?

My aim is to create a space that feels safe, informative, and encouraging, where recovery is not only possible, but realistic for anyone willing to take those steps. ➡️ I’m a BACP qualified therapist with over 20 years of experience working in eating disorders, and I’m also an expert by experience, having fully recovered from bulimia nervosa. This allows me to bring both professional knowledge and personal understanding into the work that I share here. On this channel, you’ll find a combination of solo episodes and conversations with guests. I speak with individuals about their recovery journeys, interview professionals working in eating disorders and mental health, and share practical tools, insights, and reflections from the therapy room that you can begin applying in your own life.   #HarrietFrew #TheEatingDisorderTherapist #EatingDisorderRecovery #Undereating #FoodFreedomJourney #BingeEatingRecovery #MentalHealthSupport #BodyImageHealing #RecoveryIsPossible #FoodObsessions #EmotionalEating #IntuitiveEating #HealingJourney #TherapyInsights #RecoveryJourney #RecoveryisPossible
