From the \u201cwhy\u201d behind disordered eating and movement patterns to the healing process, relationships have the power to either support or harm recovery.  In today\u2019s episode of The Appetite, Opal\u2019s Co-Founder & Clinical Director, Kara Bazzi, LMFT, sits down with therapist Nikki Wolf, LMHCA, to explore the role of relationship therapy in eating disorder treatment. They dive into what support people should (and shouldn\u2019t) do when walking alongside a loved one struggling with food, body, and movement concerns. Learn more about Opal's Family+Relationship Therapy, including our curated list of resources for family and loved ones of those struggling with eating disorders. To reach Nikki Wolf you can find her at Opal and at Wolf Heart Counseling, which gives details about her Family + Relationship Support Group - for loved ones of people with eating disorders.
