Summary

The goal of the study is to evaluate two 6-month adjunct interventions (peer mentorship and social support mentorship) for individuals with eating disorders. Individuals will be randomized to peer-mentorship, social support mentorship, or a wait-list and eating disorder symptoms will be evaluated at baseline and post-treatment.

Conditions

  • Eating Disorder
  • Anorexia Nervosa
  • Bulimia Nervosa
  • Binge-Eating Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Peer mentorship

Weekly meetings with a recovered peer mentor once per week. Dyads discuss eating disorder symptoms and how to overcome them.

BEHAVIORAL

Social support mentorship

Weekly meetings with a social support mentor who has not personally struggled with an eating disorder, once per week. Dyads engage in activities unrelated to the eating disorder (e.g., a movie, a community event, volunteer work).

BEHAVIORAL

Recovery Record use with mentor

Recovery Record is a smart phone or web-based application designed to provide recovery support to eating disorder patients. Includes a number of features aimed to promote recovery, such as a meal tracking, prompts for completing meals/snacks, tracking for additional symptoms such as stress and mood, motivational messages, information about coping strategies, and capacity to share logged data with clinicians and mentors.
