Eating Disorder Recovery After Treatment: When Weekly Therapy Isn’t Enough


Listen Later

✨ Episode Summary: What happens when eating disorder recovery support isn’t enough — but you don’t need a higher level of care?

In this episode, we talk about the often-overlooked “in-between” stage of eating disorder recovery, when weekly outpatient therapy doesn’t feel like enough but returning to higher levels of care doesn’t feel right either.

The conversation also introduces the Transitional Recovery Program (TRP) — a new evening program designed to provide additional support for individuals who are medically stable but need more structure, community, and guidance as they continue their recovery journey.

We also discuss how supported meals, group therapy, and collaborative care can help people practice recovery skills in real time while still living their everyday lives.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not sick enough” for intensive treatment but still struggling with food, body image, or emotional overwhelm, this episode is for you.


🧰 Takeaways:

  • Needing more support in eating disorder recovery does not mean you’ve failed.
  • Community and co-regulation can make difficult recovery moments more manageable.
  • The transition between levels of care can be one of the most vulnerable times in recovery.
  • Finding the right level of support can make eating disorder recovery feel more sustainable.
