This podcast continues to discuss Family-Based Therapy for eating disorders.

In this podcast I talk to Amy Cunningham — mother of last week’s guest, Emma Cunningham. Last week we heard Emma’s story of family-based therapy from the perspective of a child who had recently been through the process. If you didn’t listen to last week’s episode you can do so here.

Amy tells us about the process of putting a child through family-based therapy. From diagnosis to close to full recovery.

In this podcast, we discuss:

• Genetics of eating disorders and how they run through families.

Amy now works as an advocate for family-based therapy and other aspects of eating disorder treatment and understanding. You can find out more about the advocacy part of our conversation via the following links.
