Practical Tips and ToolsThere’s no quick fix for recovery – but there are tools that can help ease those overwhelming moments. Today, we’re exploring practical techniques that can make a difference, drawing on our own experiences as eating disorder recovery coaches. We talk about what coaching is, how it differs from therapy, and how it can complement other forms of support.
