Holistic Mental Health Vol. 2

I am excited to share that I am a featured author in a collaborative book that will be published by Brave Healer Productions on April 16, 2024, called Holistic Mental Health Volume 2: Calm, Clear, and in Control for the Rest of Your Life! This book holds a collection of essays from experts all with the same goal: what else is possible when it comes to your mental health?

 In Holistic Mental Health – Volume II, my story is found in Chapter 10, Eating Disorder Recovery: Put Joyful Movement Back into your Life. My story is dedicated to every individual who has been impacted by an eating disorder. The chapter is to help you heal a dysfunctional relationship with exercise which is often fraught with extremes, shame, and anxiety to a healthy relationship with joyful movement focusing on pleasure, rest, choice, and attuning to our bodies.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Carolyn Costin Certified Eating Disorder Coach. Fully recovered from my own eating disorder, my mission is to help those in recovery from an eating disorder and give hope that full recovery is possible! My memoir called Opening the Door: My Journey Through Anorexia to Full Recovery, was published by Koehler Books in July 2022 and during the experience I found my true passion for writing and sharing my experiences to help others.
