Supporting Loved Ones with Binge Eating Disorder: An Education Series
DATES:
Every Wednesday (until Mar 4)
TIME:
1:00pm - 2:00pm
LOCATION:
(Virtual)
This 4-week educational series is designed for family members and friends of individuals recovering from Binge Eating Disorder (BED). Participants will gain a foundational understanding of BED—its causes, challenges, and impact—while exploring the harms of dieting, the influence of cultural ideals and the rise of weight-loss medications like GLP-1 agonists. The series will highlight the importance of supportive, non-restrictive approaches to nutrition and movement, and provide practical tools for fostering empathy, encouragement, and lasting recovery.
Together, we’ll focus on building a compassionate support network that promotes healing and long-term well-being.
This series is open to anyone but will be covering topics and focusing discussions on those supporting a loved one with binge eating disorder.

Support Groups at Eating Recovery Center
Whether you are struggling with an eating disorder or your mental health, we believe that with trusted, expert support and community connection, healing is possible. Eating Recovery Center and Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center offer multiple free support groups led by trained facilitators for those who need some extra support. These groups are available for alumni, community members and families.
Our support groups are offered virtually with some in-person options across the nation.
Note: In order to offer virtual support resources to as many people in need as possible, we ask that you attend up to two support groups per week. The size of our group may fluctuate from week to week. Any group that consistently has 20 or more attendees is evaluated by our team to ensure all participants are able to have a positive experience.
We are excited to connect with you!
