I Provide support, Accountability and Motivation to People who are looking to recover from an Eating Disorder

Certified Eating Disorder Recovery
Coach

Hi – if you’ve found my page, I assume that either you or someone you love is struggling with an eating disorder. I am truly sorry for the pain this brings. I am a Carolyn Costin Certified Eating Disorder Recovery Coach, passionate about helping others recover. I’ve experienced an eating disorder myself for many years, so I understand how overwhelming, exhausting, and lonely recovery can feel. Overcoming my eating disorder is the most significant achievement of my life and has opened up a whole new world for me. With both professional training and personal experience, I am here to support and encourage you on your healing journey. No matter how long you’ve struggled, I believe recovery is not only possible but absolutely worth it. I work with all eating disorders, disordered eating, and chronic dieting. I work online and see clients from the UK and all over the world.

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 60-75 minutes. We’ll address daily challenges caused by the eating disorder that stand in the way of your recovery. This means that our remit is broad and flexible, including thoughts, feelings, and anxiety around eating, as well as behaviours. I will help you reframe these and develop coping skills for everyday life and beyond. I believe working collaboratively leads to better outcomes. Each week, we’ll choose a goal or step to focus on. I’ll provide support and accountability to help you achieve it.

Messaging help and support

My support extends beyond our weekly sessions. You can message me if you’re having a difficult time or need extra accountability. Recovery can be lonely, and eating disorders often make us want to isolate. One of my main roles as your coach is to help you feel connected to someone dependable. I’ve been through a similar experience and have the training to help you.

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 practised.

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 currently experiencing an active eating disorder, I can only offer coaching if you have medical support in place. Medical supervision is essential for your safety. If you need help finding a dietitian or therapist who specializes in eating disorders, I may be able to assist you in connecting with the right professionals.

Client Testimonials

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 a huge support in my recovery. What I appreciate most is her no-BS approach—she keeps it real in a way that truly lands. She’s knowledgeable, flexible, and willing to go the extra mile, even with our time zone difference. She makes it work, even on short notice, and always checks in with voice messages and notes that keep me on track. She’s genuine and always in my corner. I still have a way to go, but I wouldn’t have made this much progress without her. I would recommend her to anyone needing support in recovery.

GS Canada

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 .

MJ Singapore

Marianna is one of the kindest humans I have come across in the ed recovery community. Her compassion, honesty, and support have helped my partner, and me get through some difficult times. Even though she was my partner's coach, she continuously supported me every step of the way through her journey. She is an all-around good-hearted and dedicated coach that will stay by your side (and your family) through thick and thin.
