An Online Parent Support Session with Helen Dean
When your child is living with an eating disorder, it can feel like you’re walking on eggshells — every meal a battle, every word the wrong one. You want to help, but you’re not sure how.
Join Helen Dean, Accredited Practising Dietitian, Counsellor & Eating Disorder Clinician, for a practical, compassionate online session designed especially for parents and carers. With over 25 years of experience and lived understanding, Helen will guide you through what’s really happening beneath the surface — and what actually helps recovery.
 In this session, you’ll learn:
What’s really going on in your young person’s mind and body
What to say (and what not to) around food and body image
How to manage mealtimes without battles
What your role in recovery truly is — and what progress looks like
Ways to care for yourself while supporting your child
Why join?
You’ll leave with real-life strategies, reassurance, and renewed confidence that you can make a difference — even on the hardest days.
Date: Wednesday 19th November 7-8pm
Where:Â Online via Zoom
Free community session
