Show Notes

I am honored to welcome to the podcast, Carolyn Costin, my mentor.  Carolyn is a world renowned, sought-after eating disorder clinician, author, and international speaker. 

 

Recovered herself, Carolyn recognized her calling after successfully treating her first eating disorder client in 1979. Carolyn was first to publicly say that people with eating disorders can become fully recovered.

 

After 15 years in private practice and running hospital programs, Carolyn recognized a gap in the field and opened Monte Nido, the first residential facility in the U.S. combining standard treatment with meditation and yoga.  Clients finally could practice daily skills necessary for full recovery such as grocery shopping, shopping for and preparing food. 

 

Carolyn’s contributions to the field are extensive. Of her six books, the most popular is, 8 Keys to Recovery From an Eating Disorder. Carolyn’s service in eating disorder organizations,  training professionals worldwide, and the outstanding success of Monte Nido all spurred her to international acclaim.

 

After selling Monte Nido Carolyn created The Carolyn Costin Institute offering continuing education for clinicians, and the certification of eating disorder coaches, filling another existing gap in the field. Carolyn continues to see a few clients, offer consultations and speak at national and international conferences.  

 

Carolyn is a passionate, inspiring force in the eating disorder field.
