Eating Disorder Recovery Coaching
I suffered from my own eating disorder, disordered thoughts and behaviors, and body dysmorphic disorder for well over 30 years. Having gone through my own extensive recovery process, I can say I am fully recovered today. I have also worked hard to process and heal a history of complex trauma.
I opened Recover You, LLC in 2019 as a part-time practice while still maintaining my 25+ year consulting career. I love working with clients so much that now I am transitioning to a full-time recovery coaching practice.

My Story
Any adult (18+) wanting to heal and recover from an eating disorder, disordered eating, body image issues, and compulsive exercise.
Drawing from my personal journey of recovering from complex trauma (C-PTSD), as well as in-depth training, I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed approach. This experience deepens my understanding of the intricate ways in which trauma and eating disorders intertwine. I recognize how trauma can shape one's relationship with food, body image, and exercise, and I'm committed to providing a supportive space for healing and growth. Together, we can explore these challenges in a safe and nurturing environment, paving the path towards recovery and empowerment.
Who I Work With
I work from a value-based perspective and help you to investigate and identify whether your eating disorder behaviors align or misalign with your value system. Some of my core values that helped me lean into and maintain my recovery include compassion, empathy, integrity, autonomy, and empowerment.
I’m certified to coach through the Carolyn Costin Institute (CCI) and have completed rigorous training and supervision hours directly under world-renowned eating disorder expert Carolyn Costin, M.A., M.Ed., M.F.T. Additionally, I'm certified in the iMove Method, developed by Amy Gardner, MS, CEDRD, RYT, which equips me to assist clients in their journey toward healing from compulsive exercise.

GWEN SCHUBERT GRABB LMFT, CEDS-S
I had my first experience with Brandy and recovery coaching and found it extremely helpful. With a full practice, I don't have the time to do the meal sessions and provide the support outside of sessions that is so often needed. Brandy filled that need and it made all the difference.
She was able to have meals, supportive check-ins, and follow-ups and kept me in the loop. She has a warm, enthusiastic style that's easy to connect with, provides hope and she really knows her stuff. I look forward to working with her again!
