Eating Disorder Recovery, Managing Eating, The ED Voice, Thoughts on Diaries, Body Image and Finding your Voice with Scarlett O’Connor

The Eating Disorder Therapist

Today I’m talking to Scarlett O Connor (BSc EFTi EFTMRA), an accredited and experienced Emotional Freedom Technique Therapist who works with clients in recovery from eating disorders.

Scarlett has been on her own healing journey, after suffering for over 25 years with eating disorders. She now is passionate about supporting others with healing and inspiring hope for recovery.

In this conversation, we explore Scarlett’s healing journey from different eating disorders. Scarlett shares her unique approach and reflects on helpful and less helpful support that she received on her own healing. She talks about dealing with food and eating more; the eating disorder voice; looking at the eating disorder in its present context and function, rather than getting lost in the past; her dislike of food diaries; finding the ‘grey’ rather than an ‘all or nothing’ mindset; dealing with feelings that emerge in recovery; thoughts on body image and finding your voice and self-acceptance. I hope that you enjoy the conversation.
