Eating disorder Recovery Services

I provide personalized recovery coaching sessions for clients anywhere in the world via virtual sessions.   Coaching includes

Personalised Recovery Sessions

Weekly sessions lasting 60-75mins We will work on the issues that the eating disorder presents in daily life and that are an obstacle to your recovery. This means that our remit is wide and flexible including the thoughts, feelings and anxiety around eating, as well as the behaviours, I will help you reframe these and learn new coping skills that you can use not only in recovery but in life beyond. I strongly believe that collaborative work leads to better outcomes so together we will pick a weekly goal tor step to work towards and I will then provide you with the accountability and support to achieve this.

Messaging help and support

My support extends beyond our weekly sessions and I am available for you to message when you are having a difficult time or simply when you need the accountability. Recovery can be lonely and Eating Disorders often encourage us to isolate and turn toward the ED so one of my main roles as your coach is to help you feel connected to someone who is dependable and has been through a similar experience to you and also has the training and skills to help you.

Eating disorder meal support sessions

Creating a safe and supportive space either in person or virtually where food rules and rituals can be challenged and new skills can be practiced.

Collaboration with your medical team

If you currently have a dietitian or therapist in place then I will help you to implement and integrate your treatment goals. Please note – if you are suffering with an active Eating Disorder I can only work with you if you have medical support. In some instances, I may also be able to help find a dietitian or therapist if you are unable to do so.

Testimonials from my clients

If you are looking for an amazing coach, look no further than Marianna. From the first time I spoke to Marianna, she immediately put me at ease and i felt I could trust her – which doesn’t come easy! Marianna’s lived experience is similar to mine and this really helps as I feel she gets me but also that she knows when the ED is popping up and needs challenged and called out. It also helps me begin to believe that full recovery is possible after many years of having an eating disorder and that I don’t need to settle for just managing it and living alongside as I’ve been advised before. Marianna challenges and questions the eating disorder thoughts and behaviours and is firm when the E.D behaviours/ thoughts need called out (this is so what I need). For so long I have felt stuck and really struggled but with Marianna’s help I’m start to see a shift in my thinking and how I can begin to change. For the first time in a very long time, I truly believe that I can only keep moving forward, make and maintain the changes I need with Marianna’s help, support, encouragement and unwavering belief in me, especially when I feel overwhelmed and she helps ground me again. Finding Marianna has been like finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Recovery truly is one of the most challenging, demanding, and downright terrifying things but Marianna’s support has helped me to stay motivated, to find the wins in each day and to trust the process of recovery, learning from the ups and downs of each challenge. Being recovered herself, Marianna’s insight and genuine understanding has been instrumental in my own recovery and in helping me feel less alone and ashamed of my struggles. Knowing that I will always be met with unfeigned compassion and empathy, while still being appropriately challenged and encouraged, has truely been one of the most impactful aspects of Marianna’s support. Her ability to create a safe space where I feel comfortable to explore how I’m feeling and what may be holding me back has been incredibly helpful. Despite the overwhelming challenges that come with recovery, Marianna’s unwavering support and encouragement has allowed me to believe, for the first time, that recovery truely is possible and that a beautiful and fulfilling life, free from this horrible illness is attainable.

Marianna has been very helpful, kind and supportive for me and my daughter suffering from ED. Her only intention is to help the patient and she means only good . She knows what suffering from ED is being an ED sufferer herself and that is one factor which makes her different from others as the empathy is genuine and she can really feel the persons pain and suffering. She knows her subject and understands totally what the other person is feeling which makes the person very comfortable and supportive . Money is secondary for her … I have witnessed this personally and that makes her even more special as it shows her kind heart and soul.
