Sarah Roberts and Phoebe Dale are trainee clinical psychologists completing their Doctorate of Clinical Psychology at Lancaster University.
Sarah and Phoebe's area of research is around the "eating disorder voice" - that critical inner voice particular to eating disorders and often missed by eating disorder support services in favour of traditional "weight restoring" methods. It has only recently, in the last decade, even been considered as valid.

Sarah and Phoebe want this to change and for the eating disorder voice to be heard, listened to and expressed creatively, be it a story, a song or a picture and to play a key part in the recovery of anyone suffering with eating disorders/behaviours.

We think this episode is particularly helpful if you are a young person suffering with an ED or for a parent or carer of someone with an ED.

Get involved with their research because it's important and valid.
