WHAT DOES 1:1 EATING DISORDER RECOVERY COACHING Look Like?
Research supports that a coach can have a significant positive impact on the “coachee." Anecdotal evidence from eating disorder recovery clients working regularly with coaches who have lived experience report decreased stress and enhanced feelings of connection and confidence in their recovery.

My name is Merrit Elizabeth and I am an Eating Disorder Recovery Coach. I have a Master of Science in Health Promotion Management, and I am pursuing advanced education in Applied Neuroscience and Coaching Psychology. I’m based in Chicago, but see clients virtually all over the world!
Raising your subconscious awareness focuses on turning off your default network for negative thoughts, recognizing triggers for negative behaviors, and relearning the body’s signals for hunger, thirst, rest, movement, & emotional regulation. I will coach you to conscious eating and purposeful living.
Awareness
Conscious change requires a shift in mindset from survival of the eating disorder to the freedom of recovery. You will develop your “why’s” for recovery and begin building the environment that allows you to manifest healing. Visualization of life in recovery should be practiced regularly.
Mindset
Your brain, body, and soul depend on nutrients for healing. I can educate and empower you to understand the interconnectedness of physical, mental, and spiritual health.
