We are excited to offer an eating disorder college process group. We know how hard it is to be a college student with an eating disorder.

Beginning February 2026 over Zoom every Monday at 7pm.

You’re away at school and want to begin your adult life. But you are dealing with an eating disorder and it takes up brain space. You can’t fully engage with your peers. At meals you worry about what to eat and whether you are eating too much or the right things. You worry about your appearance and how others perceive you. You desperately want to get better and move on in your life. But everywhere you turn there are messages on campus that reinforce your eating disorder thoughts. You feel isolated and alone and wish there were others who could understand.

Among a group of fellow college students, you will get the support you need to feel less alone. Group members will support each other with connection and accountability.
