2nd Thursday @ 12:30pm ET & 4th Thursday @ 7pm ET
This virtual peer-led support group is designed for moms and birthing people in the perinatal period (from pregnancy up to 4 years after birth) who are currently experiencing or have experienced eating disorders. No formal diagnosis is required to join.
Welcome individuals navigating all forms of disordered eating, including restrictive patterns, compensatory behaviors, overexercising, obsessive over food and body thoughts, rigid thoughts and beliefs around food and body, excessive concerns about health, compulsive body checking and weighing, constant food noise and distressing thoughts about body.
The postpartum period—and life with young children—can bring unique challenges that make recovery and self-care even more complex. This group offers a brave, judgment-free space to connect with others who truly understand.
Whether you’re considering recovery or have been in recovery for some time, you are welcome here. Together, we share stories, resources, and encouragement—with the goal of reducing isolation and building hope.
In this group, we will not share the details of eating disorder behaviors, share specific numbers (like weight), or make comparisons.
We recognize this group is during lunchtime and we encourage you to nourish yourself during this time. However, this is not a meal support group and we ask that you eat and drink off camera.
PSI Support Groups
All of our groups are FREE and virtual. When registering for ShareWell for the first time, skip the unlimited offer on the payment page.
What to Expect
Our groups are 90 minutes (1.5 hours) in length. The first ~30 minutes is spent providing information, education, and establishing group guidelines. The next ~60 minutes is “talk time,” in which group members share and talk with each other. Group members must be present for the group guidelines before joining in the discussion or “talk time.”
Student and clinical observations are not allowed in our group spaces due to confidentiality and creating a safe space.
- Cameras are required during introductions for the safety of all group members. Please make sure your technology allows you to turn on your camera at least briefly for this portion of the session.
- The session will take place via Zoom (from the ShareWell website), so make sure your device is compatible with the Zoom app. This may require updating or downloading the Zoom app.
