Online Drop-In Group for Caregivers
Topic D: Supporting an Adult (Over 18)
This online drop-in group is suitable for parents, partners, friends, siblings, loved ones, and supporters of anyone with eating disorders.
About This Group
As a loved one experiencing an eating disorder gets older, supporting them may start to look a little different. Adults have different responsibilities than those under the age of 18, which may add complex layers to accessing treatment and finding support.
Join Registered Nurse Chantelle Jensen for this drop-in online support group that looks at how support for an eating disorder evolves into adulthood, and how to help your loved one during these changes.
EDSNA support groups are always:
- Professionally-facilitated by people with extensive backgrounds in eating disorders.
- Intended to support to those wishing to support someone through their path to recovery in a safe, nonjudgmental environment
- Focused on fostering a sense of empowerment and hope
- Focused on promoting self-discovery in a safe space
- Limited to a small number of participants allow everyone to participate fully.
