Episode 29: What is your approach with clients?

Welcome back to the Art & Science of Eating podcast!

It’s a huge step to reach out to a professional for help, because being vulnerable can be scary!  Jessica’s goal with her clients is to create a safe place where people can explore ways to heal from disordered eating, emotional eating and binge eating without shame, without useless “helpful hints”, but understanding you as a human being with needs and a need for unconditional support.

In this week’s question, Jessica answers an interesting question: how does she approach working with her clients? After working as a dietitian and clinical counsellor for 15 years, it's become so natural to collaborate with clients that it feels like the answer to this question is to follow the natural flow. Other points featured in this week’s podcast include:

• How Jessica got into working with others as a dietitian

• The disempowerment that clients feel

• How could we approach clients in a comfortable and secure manner
