Carolyn Costin is a world renowned, sought-after eating disorder clinician, author, and international speaker.

Recovered herself, Carolyn recognized her calling after successfully treating her first eating disorder client in 1979. Carolyn was first to publicly say that people with eating disorders can become fully recovered.

After 15 years in private practice and running hospital programs, Carolyn recognized a gap in the field and opened Monte Nido in 1996, the first residential facility in the U.S. combining standard treatment with meditation and yoga. Clients finally could practice daily skills necessary for full recovery such as grocery shopping, shopping for and preparing food.

Carolyn's contributions to the field are extensive. Of her six books, the most popular is, 8 Keys to Recovery From an Eating Disorder. Carolyn's service in eating disorder organizations, training professionals worldwide, and the outstanding success of Monte Nido all spurred her to international acclaim.

After selling Monte Nido Carolyn created The Carolyn Costin Institute offering continuing education for clinicians, and the certification of eating disorder coaches, filling another existing gap in the field. Carolyn continues to see a few clients, offer consultations and speak at national and international conferences.

In March 9 2022 Carolyn was awarded, from the government of Australia, a distinguished talent visa for her work in eating disorders.

She currently spends time in Australia training eating disorder clinicians, running groups, consulting on various eating disorder cases and projects, and working as an independent contractor for Wandi Nerida, the first eating disorder residential treatment program in Australia.

• The difference between recovered and recovering

• Understanding what is means to "betray your soul"

• The ego is our driving force

• The importance to write or speak for your message to go into the neuropathways

• The importance of role play
