Welcome to the Eating Disorders Recovery  Services (EDRS) website.

 

EDRS is for concerned individuals researching services for a loved one, and trying to understand these baffling disorders. As well as individuals who have issues with body and food, or for people who acknowledge that they do have an eating disorder and are looking for support and treatment.

 

Medical and Mental health professionals who want to be notified of professional offerings and current research will find this a valuable resource.

Later that evening Buck described the Center for Discoverys' programs, and presented on the topic of self injurious behaviors and the eating disordered client.   One of the goals of EDRS Is to increase training in the field of eating disorders. Therapists, nurses, dietitians, psychiatrists, and medical personnel in  attendance gained knowledge and awareness through the information Buck graciously provided pro-bono in honor of National Eating Disorders Awareness Week.

 

 

 

         Beyond Hunger in Marin County collaborated with EDRS along with IMAGINE! Center for Creativity and Healing to offer an evening of Storytelling, Enactment, Sociomety, and Psychodrama. It was a fun and powerful evening mid week of NEDAW.
