"I am so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to learn from Neathery and the dynamic group of mental health professionals that is my cohort. I am certain that I would not have received the kind of carefully curated, expansive material that I got from this training group anywhere else. It doesn't exist. Neathery has created a space for professionals to grow not only to better support our respective communities, but also to support ourselves. I feel forever changed and this knowledge has lit a match that I am certain will guide my social work practice. Whether you do more private practice or community work, this group has something for you, and I can't wait to share what I've learned with my community."

"This training revitalized my passion for my work and helped me continue to feel more embodied in myself and my work. I started the training feeling very frustrated with the eating disorders field and feeling on the fence about continuing with this work, but I feel more open minded to continuing now that I have learned different ways to approach ED work that are anti-oppressive and respectful of my clients' lived experience in their bodies. Words can't quite express how glad I am that I was able to be part of our cohort, thank you so much!"

"This training was comprehensive and thorough beyond my hopes and expectations. Be prepared to have your mind blown and spend the next few years digesting all of the information."

"The Ample and Rooted Eating Disorder Training was hands down the best training I've attended in my 25 years post-graduate school because it's so much more than a training course. I've learned so much more about eating disorders and how to implement this knowledge with clients. I have unlearned so many toxic ideas and behaviors that have been passed down for centuries, and I've gained a deeper sense of self-compassion as I've healed. As a result of this training, the leaders, and my cohort, I'm excited to take my newfound knowledge and passion into my work with clients as I become an even better therapist."

"This training not only blew my expectations out of the water but helped me feel confident in my skills and feel more excited about the work I do as an eating disorder therapist. I feel less alone in the heaviness that can accompany this type of heavy but worthy work and believe Ample + Rooted allowed me to finally have a community in the HAES/anti-oppression eating disorder world that I have been looking for for many years. I already have and will continue to recommend this training to anyone who asks for a comprehensive, insightful, encouraging and supportive eating disorder training."

"I feel those 6 months not only made me a better clinician, but also a better person - for my clients, and for myself. I will hold this experience in my heart forever."

"With a mindful approach and humor, Neathery shares their vast experience and expertise in eating disorders, diet culture, anti-oppression, and social justice in a tangible, authentic way for each participating mental health professional. With each module, I build more confidence in how to assess for and work with eating disorders with clients of all ages. This training also challenges me to self-reflect on my own relationship with food, diet culture, and white supremacy."

“This is a fantastic learning opportunity, especially if you did not get a lot of specialized eating disorder training during grad school or in post-grad jobs. Neathery is a warm, loving teacher who really knows their stuff when it comes to eating disorders. The social justice aspect of the information we are learning have really helped to change my view of the world, and I am applying all this knowledge not only professionally but personally to change my own relationship with food and my body. If you have the chance, you should definitely participate in this training!”

"This training has been an invaluable source for me in my growth as a therapist. It not only gave me concrete language and tools for assessing and treating eating disorders, but provided a theoretical basis for understanding the oppressive framework so many of us have been steeped in growing up, and empowered me further in connecting the dots between therapy as a healing AND liberatory practice."

“This has been an amazing training experience. It came right at the time in my life (personally and professionally) when I needed it the most and had led to me having a beautiful community of like minded professionals to consult with and be on my own body acceptance journey with. Neathery is very knowledgeable about treating eating disorders, Health at Every Size, Intuitive Eating, and the social justice aspects of this work and they happily share this knowledge with you in ways that are very relatable and nonjudgmental. Neathery's been a great teacher and guide and I would recommend this training group for everyone!”

“This group was a wonderful way to expand my knowledge around food and body that I will be able to use with my clients. Most of my clients at one time or another have experienced pressure for their body to look a certain way and this course helped me to gain insight and resources so I can best help them with these issues. Neathery is super knowledgeable as well as warm and caring so it was a great combo!”

"What a beautiful experience of learning and unlearning. This training has made me feel like a better clinician but has also deepened and enriched my own relationship with body liberation work. Cannot recommend it enough!"

"Ample+Rooted Foundations is exactly the kind of training I have been looking for. As a nutrition therapist and dietitian, it's hard to find communities of people and learning environments that push us to consider how we can be trauma-responsive, anti-oppressive, and support our the humanity of our clients. Neathery's perspectives and inviting energy are very unique. The space they create for pausing and listening is unlike anything I have ever experienced in a group setting. There is an intimacy and vulnerability to it that invites the same in how we view ourselves as clinicians and human beings. There is something so fresh about looking at things we may already know within this context that has really helped me pull new noticings out that have surprised me. The group dynamics, where we get to challenge each other as we get to know each other is exactly how I like to learn. This training is a full sensory experience and essential to my growth as a person and professional. I am extremely grateful!"

"I'm so so grateful to be able to be a part of this training. The training and the professionals in my cohort have helped shape me into the clinician that I am and have greatly contributed to my understanding of what it means to be an embodied therapist. I fiercely believe in my gut, that everyone would greatly benefit from completing Ample + Rooted's training-- the world would be a more compassionate place."
