The way we eat reflects the way we live
Rachel uses the three stage support model in The Nurtured Recovery to guide individuals through the therapeutic journey; firstly creating safety, stability and symptom management; moving into deeper exploration, compassionate acceptance and focusing on implementing strategies and addressing specific challenges; and finally, the third stage consolidation and maintenance, helping apply what you have learned and develop coping skills for long-term well-being.
Alongside Rachel's qualifications and 15 years of industry wisdom and a lived recovery experience.
Rachel understands what it is like to live in fear of food and eating, of what would happen if you start to nourish, love and care for yourself. She knows what it is like to deprive yourself not only of food, but also joy, pleasure and freedom.
She also understands what it is like to overcome those things, to heal the war with food and truly start to respect and nurture yourself.

Our framework has been designed based on the latest evidence and Rachel's experience of working with thousands of individuals over the last 15 years. Each step is designed from a therapeutic and coaching lens to educate you and provide you with support, confidence and guidance to make gentle changes in daily life.
You get introduced to a new step each week via our online portal and we pop you a gentle reminder via email too. We know life can be busy so we give you the most important information to read, listen or watch with additional resources if you want to explore more.

Understanding and exploring eating disorders and disordered eating

Worrying Less About Your Looks
Healing Binge Eating
Many people think binge eating is about willpower, but it has nothing to do with "strength". Learn why food feels out of control and how to overcome this safely and from a place of empowerment.
Stopping Calorie Counting
Calorie counting apps can be a great tool for increasing knowledge of food and awareness of eating behaviours, but if they become obsessive this can have a negative impact on life. Learn how to be free of calorie counting through this step by step short course.
The psychological impact of dieting and food restriction
Often people think that dieting just impacts the body, but it also impacts the brain and nervous system and this has an effect on hormones, neurotransmmiers mood and more.
Restricting the type of food eaten is a common disordered eating behaviour, perhaps you ban chocolate from the house or avoid carbohydrates; learn how to overcome fears and find freedom and peace with all foods.
