Understand the essential foundations of eating disorders so you can support people with accuracy.

You'll explore how eating disorders are defined and how the clinical view of them has changed over time, and learn to tell everyday eating behavior from an established disorder. You'll look at the full spectrum of eating behaviors: emotional eating and emotional regulation, the role of restriction in the compulsive cycle, and the place weight and body shape take in personal identity. Finally, you'll define the coach's role: the limits of your work, the complementary professionals you'll partner with, and a nonjudgmental, empathic stance, with a hands-on "Contextual Analysis of an Eating Behavior" exercise.

🎯 The result: you have a solid understanding of eating disorders and of your strategic role in supporting change, without stepping into the therapeutic field.

Discover the three major eating disorders and the mechanisms that drive them.

You'll study anorexia nervosa (the dynamics of control and the fear of autonomy, all-or-nothing thinking and body distortion, and the warning signs that call for urgent referral). You'll decode bulimia nervosa's binge-compensation-shame cycle, emotional urges and diversion strategies, and how to move from the dangers of dieting to flexible eating. Then you'll explore binge-eating disorder (BED): emotional distress as the main driver, disordered eating patterns, and restoring body signals, with "The Bulimia Cycle Interruption Journal" exercise.

🎯 The result: you can identify the key mechanisms of the main eating disorders and fine-tune your support with precision, within a safe, clear framework.

Learn to spot the lesser-known and emerging forms of eating disorders.

You'll explore orthorexia (the trap of "pure" food) and bigorexia (the obsession with muscle mass and exercise), and the cultural context that idealizes performance. You'll study avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID): its three drivers of restriction, respecting the comfort zone with gradual exposure, and adapting your coaching when weight isn't the client's concern. Finally, you'll learn the warning signs of pica and other specified feeding or eating disorders (OSFED), with an exercise on "Assessing the Flexibility and Rigidity of Rules."

🎯 The result: you develop a sharper eye that lets you recognize the many forms of eating disorders, well beyond the best-known ones.

Understand the many factors that contribute to an eating disorder.

You'll explore biological and genetic factors (heritability, genetic vulnerability, and the disrupted role of neurotransmitters and hormones) and learn to tell biological temperament from conscious choice. You'll look at the psychological and emotional factors: low self-esteem and relentless self-criticism, trauma and adverse childhood experiences, and at-risk personality traits. Then you'll see how the thin ideal, diet culture, family dynamics, and parental expectations shape the relationship with food, with "The Mirror of Kindness" exercise to change the inner dialogue.

🎯 The result: you work from a multidimensional understanding and avoid the oversimplified interpretations that so often backfire.

Develop your professional ability to recognize the signs.

You'll learn to recognize behavioral signs and rituals: obsessive rituals around food and meals, exercise abuse, concealment strategies, and social isolation. You'll get an overview of the physical signs that call for vigilance (weight fluctuations and BMI, signs of malnutrition, dehydration, and purging) and practice vigilance questions you can ask a client without diagnosing. Finally, you'll structure the first session: gathering the client's eating and dieting history, identifying their real motivations and goals, and setting the coaching agreement and professional boundaries.

🎯 The result: you feel confident spotting the signs of an eating disorder and framing your role correctly from the very start of the relationship.

Master the art of supporting clients with empathy and professionalism.

You'll learn to establish a clear, non-medical support stance: clarifying how coaching differs from therapy, building a working alliance based on trust and unconditional acceptance, and managing unrealistic expectations such as rapid weight loss. You'll practice active listening techniques (emotional reflection and validation, summary restatement, and solution-focused language that neutralizes judgment). Then you'll structure the first phase of support with an overarching goal of "freedom" or "flexibility" and weekly behavioral micro-goals, with an exercise on empathetic guidance statements.

🎯 The result: you know how to build a safe, credible, and deeply supportive alliance from the very first sessions.

Work with the emotions at the heart of compulsive eating.

You'll learn to identify trigger emotions: alexithymia and relearning to recognize primary emotions, a detailed map of "emptiness," "boredom," and "loneliness," and tools for telling physical hunger from emotional hunger. You'll teach calming techniques such as diaphragmatic breathing, anchoring and sensory reorientation in a crisis, and emotional release through writing and movement. Then you'll use mindfulness and grounding: mindful eating without judgment and the "choice interval" between impulse and action, with an exercise to build the client's non-food crisis toolkit.

🎯 The result: you help your clients regain emotional control and defuse cravings before they take hold.

Learn to transform the thoughts that feed eating disorders.

You'll learn to deconstruct negative automatic thoughts about food: identifying "strict rules" and "food taboos," challenging cognitive distortions (catastrophizing, overgeneralization), and introducing nuanced thinking in place of all-or-nothing thinking. You'll tackle the myth of perfection and body image by separating self-worth from appearance and exploring "body neutrality" and the benefits of imperfection. Finally, you'll use reframing tools such as the "belief trial" technique and the critic's voice vs. the coach's voice, with a body gratitude journal exercise.

🎯 The result: you help free your clients from the beliefs that keep food-related suffering and self-judgment going.

Move from understanding to action.

You'll learn to set realistic, measurable goals with the SMART method applied to reducing compulsive eating, prioritize ending compensatory behaviors, and track progress by a sense of freedom rather than by weight. You'll master the art of micro-change: reintroducing one "forbidden" food per week, planning social meals and handling outside pressure, and replacing compulsive exercise with enjoyable physical activity. Finally, you'll establish balanced eating rituals (a regular meal structure, and preventive strategies for leftovers and compulsive shopping) and build a detailed action plan for the client's most frequent trigger.

🎯 The result: you know how to create effective, tailored, and sustainable action plans that support a gradual return to regular eating.

Support lasting change over the long term.

You'll learn to build personal resilience: integrating "letting go" as an essential skill, identifying the core values that support long-term change, and focusing on continuous progress rather than a finish line. You'll recognize moments of vulnerability and weak signals (personal risk factors for relapse, an early intervention plan for when old patterns resurface, and seeing a setback as a learning opportunity rather than a catastrophe). Finally, you'll close the coaching process by assessing the skills gained and preparing the client for autonomy, with a "Letter from Your Future Self" exercise.

🎯 The result: you know how to secure the end of the coaching journey and support a lasting, independent transformation.

Get ready to practice with peace of mind, within a sound legal and ethical framework.

Want to take things further and offer your services professionally? This module walks you through it step by step: which terms to use (and which to avoid), which obligations to meet, how to set up in practical terms, how to arrange your space, how to attract your first clients… and above all, how to lay the right foundations so you can practice without stress, with legitimacy and confidence.

🎯 The result: you gain clarity on the steps ahead, you build your business on solid footing, and you approach your first client sessions with confidence.

Adopt an ethical, responsible, and caring stance.

Because supporting someone takes more than technical skill… This final module gives you the essential foundations of a respectful, reassuring stance: confidentiality, respect for each person's pace, the duty to inform, the limits of your scope of practice, working within the law… You'll discover a clear, structured code of ethics you can adopt to establish a safe framework, for yourself as much as for your clients.

🎯 The result: you develop an ethical professional stance that inspires trust and protects your practice over the long term.
