We know the holidays can be a tricky time for many. This article has some helpful tips for managing the holiday season with an eating disorder https://www.uab.edu/news/youcanuse/item/13869-how-to-celebrate-food-centered-holidays-through-disordered-eating-recovery and we'll pop links to some helpful sites below for anyone struggling with an eating disorder or trauma. We are really excited about 2024 as we continue to grow and will be looking for clinicians passionate about the treatment of eating disorders or wanting to learn, to join the team. But for now, wishing our staff, clinicians and wonderful community of clients a safe and nourishing holiday season. Looking forward to seeing you in 2024.

Well what a way to round off the year! My warmest welcome to both Cassandra Smith and Alex Sheffield who will be joining the everyBody team in January 2023! Please see the website www.everybodypsychology.com.au for details on both of their experience and areas of interest. I am thrilled to say that means we are able to accept referrals going into the new year, especially for adults.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have moved with us and joined us over the past months, and look forward to continuing to offer treatment to those in need going into 2023.

Its been a little quiet over here while we have been working on some exciting changes and are thrilled to announce that MGPsych has expanded and re-opened as everyBody Psychology & Wellbeing. Headed by Director and Clinical Psychologist, Mandy Goldstein, the practice continues to focus on the treatment of eating disorders, trauma and other concerns, in a new space in the heart of Bondi Junction in Sydney.
