Скачать или смотреть 199. Treating Eating Disorders, OCD and Anxiety in Athletes with Hannah de Groot, LPC

This episode of the Female Athlete Nutrition podcast is with licensed professional counselor and lifelong athlete Hannah de Groot. She is the founder of Stride Counseling (https://www.stridecounseling.co/) , a private practice dedicated to helping athletes struggling with eating disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Hannah shares how she combines her personal experiences as an athlete struggling with an eating disorder with her education in nutrition and counseling to help other athletes overcome eating disorders, OCD and anxiety. We discuss reasons why disordered eating is common in athletes and some of the misinformation spread through diet culture. We give listeners advice for overcoming “good food, bad food” thinking and “fear” foods, as well as highlighting how sport can give you the strength to recover. Hannah and I provide tips for preventing disordered eating and anxiety in athletes, alongside ways to support those struggling.



Hannah talks about what OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) is and is not, sharing key signs and symptoms. This includes compulsive exercise which often co-exists with disordered eating and eating disorders. We discuss how anxiety underlies both OCD and eating disorders, as well as what recovery looks like. Hannah shares more about her work and services, before answering the usual end of the podcast questions.
