My mission is to educate health care providers and support parents/carers facing eating disorders worldwide.
As a national speaker Becky Henry will enlighten your organization about eating disorders from the family perspective. As a parent who has lived with the impact of eating disorders for over 11 years now Becky Henry has made it her mission with Hope Network to empower other parents & carers and reduce their sense of isolation during a loved one’s eating disorder and reclaim joy.
Interviewing dozens of families, Henry filled her book, Just Tell Her to Stop: Family Stories of Eating Disorders with personal accounts from over 40 families.
She will be in the Phoenix area February 10-15, 2012 and is currently scheduling engagements. Her fun and engaging style will give insights and tools for anyone who wants to learn more about eating disorders.
Becky welcomes you to the discussion on her blog at http://coachbeckyhenry.blogspot.com/
For families looking to:
- Stop feeling alone and/or blamed
- Get tips & strategies for living with an eating disorder
- Learn what to say and Not say
- Educate yourself about eating disorders
For health care providers who:
- Crave deeper understanding of the complexities of eating disorders
- Seek knowledge of red flags to watch for prior to diagnosis and treatment
- Want to understand the impact of shame/secrecy behind these illnesses
It is estimated that currently 11% of high school students have been diagnosed with an eating disorder.
