We had the pleasure of chatting with Dr Rachel Evans for this episode - and we absolutely loved her multi-faceted approach to eating disorder recovery. Rachel draws on her own lived experience with Bulimia, and uses lots of different therapeutic modalities in her client sessions so that each session is tailored exactly to the individual client. 

Rachel kindly shared her own story with us, and we are sure it will resonate with many people, because it highlights that there often isn't a distinct moment in time when our relationship with food goes off the rails and an eating disorder develops, but that it can happen very gradual, and under the disguise of 'healthy eating' habits.

We talked about how we can get back out of those destructive and disordered habits, how recognising triggers is vital, and how hypnotherapy can be super helpful for some clients in understanding where the foundations to their eating disorder were laid.

Her podcast 'Just Eat Normally' has over 60 episodes of conversations about eating disorder recovery with some great guests! 

BIO: Dr. Rachel Evans is a chartered psychologist, hypnotherapist and mum of 2. She combines her lived experience of bulimia recovery with professional expertise and training to support one-to-one clients who feel obsessed with food, hate their body, and use increasingly extreme methods to try and control it, from making themselves throw-up, to misusing laxatives or weight-loss drugs and compulsive exercise. At the heart of her practice is a compassionate, individualised, and trauma-informed, multi-disciplinary approach, focusing on the person rather than a label
