Stories of Recovery
Reflections from clients and families supported through our concierge care.
Mother of high school student
You are both our saviors. I’m seriously grateful everyday. You support each of us and that is the security we have everyday knowing you’re there to help us navigate through these really tough days. Thank you.
Newlywed, while recovering
I began my journey when I decided to seek help for what felt like a roller coaster of eating disorders. I came to you with poor body image, restricting & binge eating behaviors, and a history of bulimia. My eating behaviors came after a long, traumatic medical history, which ultimately led to a poor relationship with food and a lack of trust within my own body.
You helped me realize that this work is so much more than food. Through diving into vulnerable topics and feelings, I was able to process through the feelings that I was covering up by coping with food. You helped me nourish my body, my mind and my soul. You have forever changed my life in ways that I never saw possible, helping me successfully recover and gain my voice back.
Adult in recovery
For over 2 decades, I was stuck in a restricting / binge cycle that I saw no way out of. I would over exercise, force myself to do workouts I hate, and hated every single thing about my body.
Working with you helped me completely change the way I feel about food. I stopped feeling crazy around food, and food thoughts no longer consume my days. You taught me that intuitive eating is way more than just food; it’s self care, it’s enjoying life, it’s finding new confidence, it’s learning new things, it’s empowering. You also helped me shift my weight obsessive goals, to body acceptance and appreciation.
This program changed my life. Learning to listen to my body and learning how to nourish it with foods that make me feel my best has made my life so much better, and I am so grateful to you for helping me overcome my disordered eating, and showing me there’s a much, MUCH better way to live.

“The support of Rebecca and Jesse has helped me be more accountable and honest with myself than I have been in the last decade. Even though I don’t always trust myself, I know I can trust my team and the process.”
Mom and entrepreneur in recovery
I am so grateful to have the opportunity to work with you! I struggled with bulimia throughout my mid-late teens and early 20's, and more recently in my late 20's and all my 30's, my ED has transitioned to binge eating.
Since beginning our work together, I have significantly decreased my binge eating behaviours. You helped me believe that food is not the enemy, which has dramatically decreased my thoughts and feelings about food. I appreciate the holistic approach to healing, and I feel a sense of peace and calmness every time I connect for our sessions. ...my only wish is that I had found you sooner. :)
Parents of 18 year old
“We are so grateful to you both for your care, coaching, and support. Our daughter is where she is at physically thanks to you both!! We could not do it by ourselves and we know you will always be there for us. You guys are invaluable.”
SAHM, mother of 5
“You have opened my eyes to ideas and new ways of life that I thought were closed off to me forever. You have changed my way of thinking, my way of living, my life! I am excited to continue the journey with you. I am so grateful for what you have done for me that words can't really describe…”
Mother of 3, while recovering
“You're one of the best I have ever met on this journey... I want everyone battling with these issues to know you're there for them.”
Mother of grade 9 student
“My daughter's eating has completely shifted. She’s more relaxed and doesn’t calculate everything like before. I want to thank you for everything you did for us and your great help.”
Mother of high school student
“I am so happy for both of you. Very proud of what you both do. Proud for you. Proud of my daughter to mirror your efforts and your approach. We will be grateful for the rest of our lives.”
Mother of 14 year old
“Today is our daughter’s birthday. A few months ago we would be dreading this day. But not today.... She was looking forward to giving out treats to her classmates, lunch out with friends, her birthday dinner and dessert. She was smiling and talking at breakfast while eating. Tears of joy filled our hearts....It's unimaginable. We would like to thank you for everything you have done and are doing for our family.”
Mother of 14 year old
“I wanted to say “thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!” for helping my daughter and for being there for her when she’s in need. I’ve seen so many improvements in her mood, in her ability to stay calm, in her approach to problem-solving…I’m so impressed! To think where she was a year ago it’s like she’s a different person. You are a great team! I’m so glad we found you!”
Mother of adult child in recovery
“I was impressed with your professional and great insight. I wish I had met you earlier in my parenting journey, but you have been so helpful in navigating my adult child's journey with recovery from anorexia.”
What Makes This Work
Recovery is most sustainable when care is continuous, relational, and deeply personal.
Our approach has always emphasized:
Integrated, collaborative care — providers who communicate and plan together.
Individualized pacing and support — meeting each person where they are.
Relational healing — prioritizing trust, safety, and connection.
Real-life integration — supporting recovery within everyday routines and environments.
Family involvement — empowering caregivers with tools and ongoing guidance.
This is the philosophy that has guided our work for years — and the same philosophy that now shapes our Concierge Recovery offering.
