Cooking Classes for Eating Disorder Recovery

 

  • Are you looking for more support in your outpatient eating disorders treatment? 
  • Do you sometimes struggle with what or how to cook meals that are supportive of your recovery? 
  • Do you feel like you don’t have the skills in the kitchen to prepare simple meals? 
  • Would you benefit from eating meals within a pro-recovery environment?

Theses classes offer support and instruction from an eating disorders Registered Dietitian in a collaborative teaching kitchen at Current Wellness. Each class will feature one simple meal that will be prepared, cooked and shared by group members.

Eligibility: 

  • Open to adults (18+) with an eating disorder or disordered eating.
  • Eating disorders are healed through connection and sharing food with others. Part of each class is sharing the meal we prepare. The dietitians will not be monitoring what or amounts group members eat. We will strive for the group to be a supportive, pro-recovery environment.  However, it will be up to each group member to do their best to fuel their body in support of recovery. If you need meal coaching, this may not be the group for you.
