Published research

Evidence, not just experience.

Most recovery coaches can't point to peer-reviewed work. I can — as first author.

Arts, H., Lemetyinen, H., & Edge, D. (2019). Readability and quality of online eating disorder information — are they sufficient? A systematic review evaluating websites on anorexia nervosa using DISCERN and Flesch Readability. International Journal of Eating Disorders, 53(1), 128–132.

As seen in the media

Also the author of three books on recovery: Just Perfect (2014), Red Ribbons (2017), and a contribution to The Recovery Letters (2017).

Why it matters

Lived experience, held to a research standard.

Most coaches have one or the other: lived experience, or evidence. I bring both together — published research into eating disorder information quality, plus over ten years helping people actually recover.

That shapes how I coach: the tools I use are informed by the science, then tested in real life with real clients. Not trend-led, not one-size-fits-all.
