About

The person who usually finds me is high-achieving, meticulous, and entirely convinced that their situation does not warrant attention because they are not thin enough, not unwell enough, or not far enough along to count. That qualification test is itself part of the problem. An eating disorder does not announce itself with a threshold, and the people who most doubt they qualify are often the ones who have been managing it longest. We start by dropping the entry criteria and looking at what is actually happening in your week. Nothing about this work requires you to be in crisis first. My previous posts were nonprofit and social-work adjacent settings, where I met a great many people who had ruled themselves out of help on technicalities. Almost all of them were wrong. If you have decided you do not qualify, get in touch. Thresholds are for paperwork, not for whether you deserve an hour.
