Hello πŸ¦‹, it’s me, Emilie, a clinical psychology researcher at the University of New Brunswick (Eastern Canada) studying eating disorders & body image. Thought I’d (re)introduce myself. Here are some pics of our lab group, MEAL, at UNB. How cute are we?

Edie doesn’t mind the current one. However, it only takes aggressive fluorescent bulbs, lotsa glare so we’ve been eating by candlelight (for a year now LOL). Feel free to suggest others! Only stipulation is no naked bulbs- I’m sensitive to light.

I’m glad their therapist was helpful! Ya, there’s only 1 place in the public system providing services to youth in NB (and they have no psychologist on staff), nothing for adults

On World Mental Health Day, sharing Kerri’s horrifying story of trying to access eating disorders care for her child. There are many others just like it. Most people can’t leave New Brunswick to access this essential health care- we need specialized services here & now.
