CONVERSATIONS with FRIENDS

S1E15 - Dr Laura Ellick share her challenges with an eating disorder and how that has impacted her life today.

While attending college Dr. Laura Ellick developed Anorexia. In those days eating disorders were taboo and there was a lot of stigma around expressing any kind of mental or emotional issues to others. She feared her disorder spiraling out of control and being considered "crazy", so she began taking steps to overcome this issue. This personal experience woke up a desire to study and earn her Ph.D in Psychology with a speciality in treating eating disorders. Now she has over 20 years experience working with children, teens and adults with issues such as eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and medical illnesses.
