Episode 113 - Full of ED with Sara Gottfried, LCSW

by Karin Lewis, MA, LMFT, CEDS

In this episode, Karin welcomes Sara Gottfried, LCSW, school Social Worker and author, to the show for the newest episode of Recovery Bites, “Full of ED”

Join Karin and Sara for a conversation on missed when children express a desire to diet, the “daze” that diet culture has put society in, treating the whole person instead of only their symptoms, person first treatment, Sara’s experience writing “Full: A Memoir of Overcoming an Eating Disorder,” and much more.

Sara Gottfried, LCSW, graduated from Bridgewater State University with a Bachelor of Science and went on to complete the Advanced Standing Social Work program at Boston University, obtaining her Masters of Social Work.

Currently, she is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Massachusetts and works as a School Social Worker and outpatient therapist.

“Full: A Memoir of Overcoming an Eating Disorder,” is Sara's powerful and utterly raw story of her battle with anorexia and learning to share her story. Filled with humor, wisdom, and inspiration, readers will feel empowered to overcome their own battle with disordered eating.
