1:1  Eating Disorder Therapy Retreat


Since I have a young baby who I care for 5 1/2 days per week, I'm not able to organise and run a retreat to the standard that I would want to give you. I am able to offer 8 hour Breakthrough days online or in person. The in person option does not include accomodation.

If you're wondering why this webpage is still there for you to read, it's because I may run retreats in the future so I don't want to delete it, and I don't know how to unpublish the webpage. 

RETREATS ARE CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE FOR BOOKING


If you’re ready to make huge breakthroughs in your eating disorder recovery, and make them quickly, I’d love you to join my 1:1 therapy retreat – a beautiful, bespoke experience designed to heal, nurture and help you grow.

Please note this is an in-person experience only.

YOU DESERVE THIS TIME FOR YOURSELF

LIBBY, uk

“I felt at ease and like I could speak honestly about my thoughts and feelings without any judgement. I said more to Rachel in one session, than I have shared with my family in the past three months. Rachel helped me to understand my issues with food and gave me practical solutions, for my personal circumstances, that I can now apply in my life.”


Today, I’m an eating-disorder psychologist. But once upon a time I was struggling with orthorexia, restrictive eating patterns and bulimia. Feeling hopeless, I hit rock bottom. But I found a way out, and now having fully recovered, I’m committed to helping others make sense of and overcome their eating disorder too.


I LOVE this work and I’m so excited to bring all my academic training, therapeutic tools, and unique approach together in this bespoke 2-day personal therapy retreat.

 

HI. I'M RACHEL 

ABOUT ME

What''s Included ?

You will be staying at The Coach House – a delightful boutique guest house close to lovely Darley Abbey park, Derby and just around the corner from my home treatment room, where we’ll meet for your 1:1 sessions.

You get to choose the feel of your stay – selecting either one of the opulent rooms within the main house, or one of the more tranquil rooms in the converted stable building, which look onto the gardens.

All the rooms are beautifully and uniquely furnished, as well as kitted out with everything you’ll need for a really gorgeous, relaxing stay.

(Take a look at the rooms in more detail here.)


BEAUTIFUL ACCOMMODATION

JENN, CANADA

"Before having our session I was in a constant state of overwhelm and stress. I am definitely a type-A perfectionist and find it hard to let things go if they aren't exactly how I want them to be. During RTT, I understood how things that happened in my past made me feel as though I wasn't good enough. This underlying belief was driving my behaviours to always do something more and constantly try to be better or be perfect. That's an exhausting way to live and I'm so thankful for this realisation and the ability to work on changing my beliefs to know that I am good enough just the way I am"


I understand that you might have food routines and habits that you want to stick to when you first arrive (I had those too when I had an eating disorder). Whatever you need, I will make sure that you get it so that you ALWAYS feel comfortable and looked after.

Your guest house provides breakfast, simple food, and the owners are very flexible with dietary requirements, preferences and meal timings. They are also happy to buy in any special items that you would like on request (we will discuss this in your online session, 2 weeks before your 1:1 retreat).

And if you would rather buy your own food, there will be a fridge in your room and I will help you with directions to shops etc.

I want to reassure you that, over our two days together, we will be working to change your mindset and food habits to bring more freedom into your relationship with eating. And so there will also be an opportunity to really enjoy a healthy, delicious meal together when you feel ready to do so.


WORRY-FREE DINING

Resting and looking after yourself are a key part of the experience. This is the start of your new life – being kind to yourself and taking your first steps into a brighter future.

In between therapy sessions and at the end of each day, you will have time to relax and rest. You can chill out in your beautiful room or enjoy the guest-house’s lovely garden. If you’d like to explore, nearby Darley Park is a great place for a walk. (I’ll give you a full list of all the things to do in the local area as part of your welcome pack.)

At the end of Day 1, you can also book a complimentary rest and relaxation session. Choose between a private yoga or Pilates class, a sound healing, or a personalised aromatherapy session.

BESPOKE RETREAT EXPERIENCE

APPLY NOW

EVE, following a 'breakthrough' session

“I came to Rachel feeling lost and confused, having overcome some of my eating disorder behaviours through self-help books and NHS CBT but I was still really struggling. My biggest change… is my mindset. I feel more confident in making choices about food at mealtimes and going to the supermarket which made me panic before. Rachel was caring and thorough with lots of different ideas to tackle problems. She gave me space to talk and made me feel like everything was my choice.... I can’t thank Rachel enough for the help she gave me.”


Two days’ intensive eating disorder therapy sessions (6 sessions) with me, Dr Rachel Evans, at my home treatment rooms in Derby, UK. Including...

In-depth assessment and lifeline work – understanding past causes of your eating disorder, learning strategies to help you in the present and redesigning your beautiful new future. 

Rapid Transformation Therapy (hypnosis) session to pinpoint limiting beliefs and upgrade your thinking. 

Personalised hypnotherapy CD to continue embedding your new habits after the retreat.

Two nights’ bed and breakfast accommodation in a superior double or twin room at boutique guest house The Coach House, Darley Abbey, Derby.

Complimentary rest and relaxation session (choose from personal yoga or pilates class, a sound healing, or bespoke aromatherapy consultation).

“I truly want to thank you. One session with you changed my perspectives and thoughts. This is the first time that I feel like I have a solid foundation to build on and I felt really comfortable talking to you; our conversation felt like I was just talking to a friend. You were not only giving me tools to use to overcome my issues, but also pointing out things that I hadn't thought of previously. I haven’t had any negative thoughts today and I have actually been using positive body talk!”
