Your clients are struggling with food in ways they will never tell you about.
They sit across from you, nod at your advice, and go home and eat their feelings. Not because they don't trust you. Because they are ashamed.

Let's be honest about what's actually happening in your caseload.
The More Than Weight report (West Yorkshire ICB, 2025) found that 66% of adults in weight management services report frequent emotional eating. Only 35% of health professionals feel equipped to support them. That gap - between what clients need and what practitioners feel able to offer - is where people fall through.
In therapy, clients often use food to cope or numb out during difficult experiences. Many learned to self-soothe with food during a traumatic period in their younger lives. Research shows that up to 80% of bariatric surgery patients had at least one adverse psychological event in their past.
In Type 2 Diabetes, up to 40% of patients meet the criteria for Binge Eating Disorder. Fewer than 27% of health professionals report screening for BED. That is a systemic failure, and your clients are paying the price for it.
And the standard of care when it surfaces? Give them another meal plan.
A client finally opens up about the bingeing, the secret eating, the cycle of restriction and shame - and the practitioner, with the best intentions in the world, reaches for what they know. A food diary. A behaviour change goal. A referral to a waiting list that is six months long.
This training is how you become the practitioner who understands what is actually happening.
Most CPD gives you theory. This gives you a clinical toolkit.

Emma Murphy
MIHP, NBC-HWC • Founder & Clinical Director, Eating Freely
I have been doing this work for almost 20 years. I am a psychotherapist, an eating disorder specialist, and the founder of Eating Freely. We have trained over 400 practitioners across more than 10 countries.
I built this training because I kept seeing the same thing - practitioners who genuinely wanted to help their clients with food and eating, but who had never been given the tools to do it properly.
This training is everything I know about this area, structured so you can implement it immediately.
