Individual Eating Disorder Recovery Coaching
One-on-one support, available online and in person in Dallas.
Personalized Support for Putting Recovery Into Practice
Knowing what to do in recovery doesn’t always make doing it feel easier. You might understand your treatment team’s guidance and still need support when you sit down for a meal, face a body image challenge, or feel pulled toward familiar patterns.
Individual eating disorder recovery coaching gives you a place to work through those moments. Together, we’ll practice recovery skills, build meaningful goals, and bring encouragement and accountability into your everyday life.
Does This Feel Familiar?When Eating Disorder Recovery Feels Hard to Navigate Alone
You Know the Tools but Feel Stuck Using Them
You leave appointments with ideas and intentions, but following through feels harder on your own. You want help turning what you’re learning into practical steps you can take throughout the week.
Meals and Everyday Plans Feel Overwhelming
Grocery shopping, trying a challenging food, or eating with friends can bring up difficult thoughts. You want support navigating these situations without having to work through every moment alone.
Part of You Wants Change, and Part of You Feels Afraid
You want more freedom, but letting go of eating disorder patterns can feel uncertain. You need space to be honest about that tension while continuing to take steps toward recovery.

Compassionate support. Practical steps. A partnership centered on you.My Approach to Eating Disorder Recovery Coaching
I want to understand what feels hard when you leave an appointment and have to put recovery into practice on your own. We’ll talk openly about what’s getting in the way, find reasons to keep going that matter to you, and work through the next step together. My approach draws on Carolyn Costin Institute certification, degrees in Psychology and Education, a teaching background, and my own recovery experience. I’ll take the time to learn what support feels helpful to you. You can expect warmth, honest conversations, and someone who will encourage you while helping you follow through.

What to ExpectHow to Get Started With Recovery Coaching
-
We’ll begin with a consultation call to discuss your needs and whether coaching is a good fit. If we decide to work together, I’ll send you the paperwork to review and sign before your intake session.
-
Your first session is a paid intake appointment. We’ll get to know each other, discuss where you are in recovery, and explore the support you’re looking for. Everyone begins with an intake session, whether you’re seeking individual coaching or support with meals, body image, or other recovery challenges.
-
After intake, we’ll begin working on your recovery goals through personalized sessions. Together, we’ll practice recovery skills, navigate everyday challenges, and build on the guidance from your treatment team.
Payment & Insurance for Recovery Coaching
Harper Reed Coaching is an out-of-network, self-pay service. You’ll pay directly for your coaching sessions, and I don’t bill insurance on your behalf.
We’ll review session rates and payment arrangements before your paid intake so you know what to expect. If you’re considering using out-of-network benefits, please check with your insurance provider about whether your plan covers eating disorder recovery coaching; reimbursement isn’t guaranteed.
