Healthy Relationships and Boundaries

A lot of people ask me about relationships. I have talked about eating disorders and relationships in the past in videos and blog posts, but today I want to talk about relationships in general. Because sometimes, eating disorders aren't what complicate things. Relationships can be complicated themselves. And there are many people who do not know what constitutes a healthy relationship. Other times, boundaries are an issue. Often, what I see, is that boundaries are an issue and people don't even know or realize this is the case. So today, I'm talking about healthy relationships and boundaries. Let's get down to business. This has nothing to do with eating disorders and has everything to do with you.

Therapy from a Therapist Perspective

This week's Wednesday video was a question from Brianna: "Please explain what the therapeutic process is like from a therapist point of view. I just thought it would help viewers understand therapy more and why boundaries are important. For example, my therapist is gone for 2 weeks its hard but I understand she needs a vacation and her job is only part of her life so it's easier for me for her to be gone." I talk about boundaries, perspectives, terminations, breaks, etc.

 

Knowing Your Limits and Being a Priority

Boundaries!

Here's my Wednesday video - put it up this morning. This week's topic is:

What are boundaries? Where are my boundaries and how will I know if they've been crossed?

It's an important topic and one to which you should give some thought. It relates to eating disorders and eating disordered individuals in a variety of ways. And it's definitely a good subject for Eating Disorder Awareness Week.
