Who we are
Beyond Body Coaching is an eating disorder recovery coaching practice founded by Mia Findlay in 2017. We offer practical and compassionate guidance through the day to day challenges of recovery.
Whether you are working through fear foods, stopping disordered behaviours or working on your body image, we are with you every step of the way. We provide long term one to one coaching, group coaching, online workshops, in person events and one time boost calls. Whatever your current recovery needs are, we've got you.
Our team of coaches have not only been accredited with The Carolyn Costin Institute, we have also fully recovered from our own eating disorders. We are a global practice with coaches in Australia, Europe, UAE and USA.
When we say we understand how tough recovery can be, you know it's true. And when we say we believe in you, you know we really do.

Our aim is to facilitate a safe and secure avenue towards recovery, with a focus on setting achievable goals and moving towards life beyond an eating disorder.
We know that life without eating disorder thoughts and behaviours is possible for you, with the right support and guidance.
