Most people recovering from an eating disorder feel stuck and overwhelmed.

Whether you want to recover or simply stay in your life and out of higher level of care, we offer a supportive and encouraging peer-based community that also provides expert education, group support, and meal support.

join for free

RecoVERY isn’t a straight line, and now you do not have to walk this journey alone. Our community is for anyone that would like or benefit from having friendly faces and similar life experiences. Many of our folks answer yes to the following questions:

  • Do you skip meals?
  • Do you make excuses for not eating?
  • Do you withdraw from social activities when food is involved?
  • Do you worry about being overweight and think or talk of losing weight?
  • Do you frequently check the mirror?
  • Do you think frequently of what you consider to be your own “body flaws”?

If you think any of these things, you will not be alone in the RecoVERY Community; however, you will be able to access folks that can help change that narrative to something more promising and hopeful. We have your back and created a space for you to feel supported and make some real, lasting change.

Recovery is possible. Start your journey today.

– Dr. Erin Knopf

The RecoVERY community is your home

Peer support is crucial in eating disorder recovery for several reasons, as it provides unique benefits that complement professional treatment.

  • Engaging with peers who have gone through or are going through similar experiences helps individuals feel validated and normalized. This validation is essential for combating the distorted self-perception that often accompanies eating disorders.
  • Peers can share practical coping strategies that have worked for them in managing triggers, handling stress, and dealing with relapses. Learning from others who have faced similar challenges can be valuable in developing effective coping mechanisms.

I would remind people that thoughts are simply words strung together to make a sentence in our head. They are not facts or truth, simply thoughts. We don't have to do anything with them and if we allow them to just be, they often lose their power. We don't have to avoid them or push them away. They can exist AND we don't have to engage with them.

I would start with helping ground, bringing into the present moment. Then identify what the thoughts are and working towards externalizing them through different thought diffusion techniques. Creating space from these thoughts, through thought diffusion, can support with decreasing the intensity of the thought.

For me, it was (and continues to be) the opportunity to establish rapport with my clients and patients, in an effort to best effect behavior change though established trust and compassion for the individual's struggles and lived experience.

I like to remind people to take a pause between the thought and the action. Its normal for the thoughts to show up so try to be gentle with yourself. Take a pause between the thought and action. Teach your brain new ways to navigate the discomfort and try those first.

Eating Disorder Recovery Coach

My own recovery journey was a huge motivator for me to pursue a career in this field. The freedom gained once I was no longer consumed by constant thoughts of food, and the body was such a gift. I'm driven by a deep desire to help others toward this same sense of liberation. Life is about so much more than what our EDs lead us to believe; it's about embracing joy and discovering the fullness of our existence. I became a recovery coach to be a companion on this journey, knowing firsthand the challenges of staying motivated between clinician appointments. I saw coaching as a the missing piece, providing daily support to navigate struggles and put recovery principles into practice.
