Eating disorder treatment focuses a tremendous amount of time and expertise on the person who is struggling. Parents need help too, but parents often need more guidance than a treatment team has the time or resources to provide. The treatment centers below support the Eating Disorder Recovery Roadmap for Parents program as an additional resource for their families. This program gives parents the ongoing weekly support, education, and practical tools they need to better understand recovery and how to best help their child.

Parents have an important role, but they need education and practical guidance to know how to help.
The Roadmap helps parents navigate meals, exercise, communication, setbacks, boundaries, college, treatment and the many situations that arise during recovery.
When parents better understand the eating disorder and their role in recovery, they are better equipped to support the work of the treatment team.

In Parents' Words
It's really a matter of life and death. Jane provided both me and my daughter with the skills to help her choose life, to help her decide that she wants to live and to experience life.
I was trying to land a plane as I was learning the pilot's manual. Life and death depended on me, and I didn't even know what I was doing.
If you're struggling with your child's eating disorder, you have to put on your own oxygen mask first. For me, this program was like putting on my own oxygen mask so I could help my daughter put on hers.
I went through all of her materials and then started going to the Friday parent Zooms, and that was when everything really clicked and I stopped feeling so alone with this.
There are handouts with actual language to reframe your child's thinking. I'm not a therapist, I'm mom, but now I know what to say in the moment instead of feeling helpless.
She's somebody who is more than just a dietitian. She's part coach, part therapist. She's a parent who's been through this.
I live for those Friday calls. I've got on my work calendar, that time is a hard block. Don't even think of scheduling.
Jane and the group helped me understand what to say and what not to say so I don't accidentally make things worse with my daughter.
My daughter actually thanked me for doing this program and learning more, which made me feel like I was finally helping instead of just worrying.
To know there really is a light at the end of the tunnel and to keep your spirits and hopes up through this process is invaluable. That's what this program gives parents.
