Visiting Professionals
The role of the Visiting Professional is to provide an additional resource for support groups.
Visiting Professionals advise and provide information at support groups, in response to attendees' questions and concerns, as a means of assisting the attendees to make informed and constructive decisions. It is expected that the Visiting Professional is a qualified health practitioner with experience and extensive knowledge in treating people with eating disorders.
Each Visiting Professional may be called upon two to three times per year.
We welcome input in this area from psychologists, psychiatrists, dietitians, nutritionists, counsellors, suitably qualified therapists, general practitioners, paediatricians and social workers.
