Bodywhys Podcast

Jenny and Harriet are joined by another special guest in this episode - Veronica Kamerling, a mother, carer, and someone who’s spent over 23 years supporting families affected by eating disorders and mental illness.
Veronica supported both her daughters when they developed an eating disorder. She founded Eating Disorders & Carers, a space for families who, like hers, were doing their best in the dark of mental health recovery.
Veronica talks to Harriet and Jenny about the value of the Maudsley carer skills for supporting your loved one with an eating disorder.

In this episode, Jenny and Harriet discuss the topic of the teenage brain and eating disorders, one of the topical sessions that Jenny runs regularly. We'll be thinking through the biology of the brain and how understanding it can help us better understand a teen's eating disorder, and most importantly how understanding the teen brain can help us support a teen with an eating disorder better.
