Eating disorder dietetic support at Relinquish is offered within a trauma-informed, non-diet, Health At Every Size®-aligned framework.
Support is centred on safety, nourishment, and collaboration. There is no pressure to change quickly, follow rigid plans, or meet external expectations. Care is paced carefully and guided by your needs, your experiences, and what feels manageable.
This support may be helpful if you are experiencing, or have a history of:
anorexia or atypical anorexia
bulimia
binge eating
ARFID
other forms of disordered eating
ongoing distress around food, eating, or body image
You do not need a formal diagnosis, referral, or to feel “unwell enough” to access support.
Eating disorders are complex and shaped by many factors, including biology, psychology, trauma, environment, and lived experience.
Dietetic support at Relinquish focuses on improving nutritional safety and adequacy while reducing distress around eating. Care is collaborative, flexible, and responsive, with an emphasis on consent, autonomy, and working at a pace that feels safe.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to recovery.
Depending on your needs and where you are in recovery, sessions may involve:
working towards consistent nourishment
reducing restriction, bingeing, or compensatory behaviours
addressing food avoidance and fear foods
supporting recovery alongside psychological or medical care
building flexibility, safety, and trust with food over time
Progress is not linear, and setbacks are approached with compassion rather than judgement.
Dietetic support for eating disorders often works best as part of a broader care team.
With your consent, Louise can collaborate with other health professionals involved in your care, such as GPs, psychologists, or psychiatrists. Collaboration is guided by what supports your safety, wellbeing, and recovery
Eating disorder dietetic support at Relinquish does not involve:
weight-loss goals or body measurements
rigid meal plans imposed without consent
calorie counting or food tracking
pressure to disclose more than feels safe
being rushed through recovery
You remain in control of decisions about your body and care at all times.
