What is an Eating Disorder Coach?
_
An ED recovery coach provides regular 1-on-1 coaching for a client's eating disorder treatment. They are a team player, often partnering with other medical professionals—including physicians, dietitians, and therapists—to support and hold clients accountable to their recovery program, tasks, and appointments. ED Coaches are certified and trained to help clients change behaviors and reach their goals, while giving room for other medical professionals to identify and treat underlying issues and causes of an eating disorder.
While functioning as a certified ED Coach, Dr. Kimberly Hicks is also a licensed medical doctor, which offers added value to her clients in the Rooted Reflection coaching program.

Dr. Hicks coaches clients of all ages and genders, and offers in-person, phone, and Zoom appointment options.
