Supporting a Partner with an Eating Disorder (Without Losing Yourself) Featuring Dr. Dana Harron

from Mental Note

What does it really mean to support a partner with an eating disorder? Does it require becoming the food police? What about the caregiver's needs? Psychologist and author, Dr. Dana Harron sits down with us to examine the unique challenges faced by partners and spouses when caring for someone through eating disorder recovery. Drawing from her practical book, Loving Someone with an Eating Disorder, Dr. Harron shares insights for partners navigating stress, intimacy, shared meals, and uncertainty around readiness for recovery. An essential listen for partners, caregivers, and loved ones seeking realistic, supportive ways to stay connected and care for themselves.
