In 2018, as a new-ish clinician, barely a year out of graduate school, I had the privilege of bringing a free eating disorder recovery support group to Austin with The National Alliance for Eating Disorders. The world has changed considerably since 2018, with groups moving virtually, but one thing hasn't changed: the need for accessible support. These groups are truly a lifeline for folks, providing a space where they are not recovering in isolation.

Did you know that more than 29 million Americans will experience an eating disorder in their lifetime and every 52 minutes someone dies as a direct result of their eating disorder?

Unfortunately, less than ⅓ will ever receive access to care. The National Alliance for Eating Disorders, the leading national nonprofit for eating disorders, has worked tirelessly over the past two decades to change these statistics. During the weekend of February 23-25, 2024, I will be participating in The Alliance’s Annual NOT ONE MORE Weekend.

Please support me as I join this global movement to ensure that NOT ONE MORE life is lost, NOT ONE MORE child is taken, and NOT ONE MORE precious moment is destroyed by this insidious disease. All proceeds from the NOT ONE MORE Weekend will directly fund their free, weekly, therapist-led, virtual eating disorder support groups!

In 2023 alone, more than 20,500 individuals from all 50 states and 83 countries around the world attended Alliance groups.The Alliance is the only national nonprofit organization that provides free, weekly, therapist-led eating disorders support groups; free referrals for all levels of care through a therapist-staffed helpline and findEDhelp; low-cost therapeutic services for uninsured and underinsured individuals; and unique and empowering Southern Smash events. Simply put, The Alliance saves lives.

Please consider donating to my page so that I can help The Alliance continue to make a difference nationwide!
