Carer’s Worker
I am the carer’s worker here at SYEDA, meaning I work with carer’s of those with eating disorders to support them during their loved one’s recovery journey. I facilitate the ‘Treading on Eggshells’ support group and do 1-1 practical skills and psychoeducation sessions. I truly believe in giving carers the space to discuss their journey; after all, eating disorders affect EVERYONE, not just the person suffering.
My background is in Psychology, achieving a first-class honours degree from Loughborough University. Since then, I have worked with individuals with eating disorders and their loved ones in various settings, including inpatient (children, young people, and adults), outpatient, day care and charity. I am currently studying for a master’s degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and will be offering 1-1 counselling support for carer’s in a trainee capacity.
I hope to support carer’s in an informative, empathic, and respectful way. Carer’s know their loved one and their own needs better than anybody else, and I hope to help you build confidence in supporting yourself and your loved one in the best way possible.
Outside of work, I love travelling, spending time with friends and reading a good book.
