About Us
At Eating Disorder Academy, we support the people who support recovery—parents. Founded by two experienced eating disorder clinicians, we created this space to simplify a complicated process and guide families through the ups and downs of helping a child heal.
We know the system is overwhelming, the information is scattered, and the stakes feel impossibly high. That’s why we’re here. Through expert-led education, compassionate community, and practical tools, we empower parents to feel informed, supported, and never alone on the journey through eating disorder recovery.
