About Dorothy
Hi, my name is Dottie Callahan and I am living proof that there is life beyond eating disorders. In my practice I guide clients as a recovered eating disorder recovery coach. I have my Bachelor’s in Education and have been certified by the Carolyn Costin Institute. At ProjectHEAL, I’m volunteering to help others on their recovery journeys. My passion is to instill hope that recovery from an eating disorder is possible. I value resisting diet culture and supporting others in making day to day behavior changes for recovery. I have the ability to support my clients by meeting them where they are at, and providing them with a variety of resources and coping skills to move towards their recovery goals.

Testimonials
“I felt a spontaneous connection with Dottie in our first conversation. She was a kindred spirit. Someone who had traveled the same road I was on but was further along in her journey who only through lived experience could understand the insidious hell of living with a decades long eating disorder. She readily offered to help, casting me a lifeline and a road map back to sanity.”
“Dottie has a wealth of experience, resources and tools that she has shared that have helped me recover from disordered eating, body dysmorphia and anorexia. Dottie truly knows what it means to have an eating disorder and the changes required to recover from it. Her encouragement, support and caring I see in Dottie a true passion to help others who have suffered and recovered as I have.”
