Shownotes
Jodie discusses the complexities of eating disorders, highlighting the limitations of a medical model and advocating for a holistic approach that considers trauma. Drawing from her personal experience, she emphasises the importance of lived experience in understanding these issues. We explore the distinction between eating disorders and disordered eating, emphasising the harm of pathologising language. Jodie shares insights into her therapeutic approach, including depth psychotherapy and a compassionate stance, challenging conventional beliefs about love in therapy and advocating against diet culture. Addressing fellow therapists, she promotes Health at Every Size (HAES) principles and stresses the need to remove moral judgments around food. Finally, Jodie dispels myths about eating disorders, offering a nuanced perspective on healing and recovery.
