Episode 62: JL Keez (she/hers) shares her story and explores how Reality Therapy helped create her path in recovery

Eating Disorders: Navigating Recovery

Catherine and Francis are privileged to welcome JL Keez to the podcast. JL – who resides in Adeliade, Australia – provides a vulnerable recollection of her nine-year lived experience with an eating disorder and how it took many years to find the right path in recovery. Now, an author and therapist, JL dedicates her time and energy towards helping and advocating for those experiencing eating disorders. She recently wrote a book, “Anorexia Unlocked: Understanding Your Story Through Mine” with the intention of making it easier for those who wish to share their stories to do so. As a therapist, JL practices Reality Therapy with clients, and shares the underpinnings of the modality on the podcast today. JL believes recovery is possible no matter how long you have experienced an eating disorder and hopes to be an example of just how it is possible. We’re grateful for her insight and expertise.
