Treatment for eating and dieting disorders, body image issues and problematic exercise is evolving but so are the numbers seeking help.

Over a million Australians are currently experiencing an eating disorder, and less than a quarter are getting treatment or support.

It’s unlikely a single factor will lead to an eating disorder and more likely to be a combination of risk factors, including genetics, emotional factors and cultural influences.
 
I speak with  Sarah McMahon, Psychologist & Director of Body Matters who has worked in the field of eating disorders for close to 20 years, supporting hundreds of people to achieve recovery.

Sarah has worked with schools, workplaces & charities to provide education & strategic direction to prevent the toxic cultural environments that perpetuate eating issues & body shame.
