Functions and benefits of coaching

Coaches work as an adiunct to a professional treatment team by providing support in-the-moment, between sessions.

Many people who are fully recovered from eating disorders or substance use disorders cite that having exposure to a recovered person in treatment was a key motivator to heal.

Coaches are not a substitute for a therapist, dietitian. etc. Coaches support the purpose of these professionals by helping the client with homework and challenges in real life situations.

Coaches can help mitigate the need for a higher level of care and they can also help clients and team members through a step-down in treatment.

Coaches help clients improve eating disorder behaviors and substance use urges, not discuss underlying issues that a therapist would assist with clients and clinicians.

Sessions can include:

  • Coaching conversations about all things eating disorder and/or substance use recovery

  • Meal and/or snack support

  • Clothing or grocery shopping support

  • Ongoing in-the-moment text support
