198. Recovering from an Eating Disorder and Addiction, Therapy and Alternative Healing with Molly Carmel

Balance Your Life

This week on the podcast I am joined by Molly Carmel. Molly is a licensed clinical therapist and fiercely devoted to helping people from all walks of life break free from their destructive relationship with food, dieting and addiction. As she battled an eating disorder and addiction for over 20 years, Molly was shocked and disheartened by the lack of viable treatment options. This hopelessness fueled her to create her groundbreaking clinic and treatment method, Beacon by MC. Since then, she has made it her life’s mission to help people find permanent solutions, and to finally and fully heal their relationships with food and, more-so, with themselves. In addition to her extensive training in Substance Use and Eating Disorders, Molly is trained intensively in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy – a practice she passionately advocates. Molly’s work has been featured on The Today Show, Good Morning America, Dateline NBC, and Extreme Makeover as well as in People Magazine, NYT, Forbes, LA Times, and more.

On this episode we talk about Molly’s own journey with an eating disorder and addiction, how to recognize that you may have an addiction or dependency, as well as steps you can take in order to free yourself from addiction. We also discuss alternative healing practices that can support you on your recovery journey, why therapy may not be working for you and what you can do as an alternative, and so much more!

DISCLAIMER: Please keep in mind this episode is not mean to act as medical advice. You are always encouraged to be your own advocate and to do your own research.
