Eating Disorder Relapse Prevention Handout Toolkit

Support your clients in their recovery journey with the Eating Disorder Relapse Prevention Toolkit, a thoughtfully designed collection of tools created by Patrizia Jesue, a recognized eating disorder specialist with over 25 years of experience. As the founder of a successful group practice that has helped thousands of individuals on their path to recovery, Patrizia has carefully developed and tested each of these handouts within her own practice, ensuring they are effective, compassionate, and practical tools for relapse prevention.

What’s Included:

• Slip/Lapse and Relapse Stoplight Infographic: A visual guide to help clients recognize and respond to signs of a potential relapse.  A good tool to open conversation about what relapse prevention work can look like.
• Red Flags Checklist: An easy-to-use checklist of common relapse behaviors, ensuring clients stay mindful of their triggers and most vulnerable moments in recovery.
• Relapse Prevention Journal Prompt Worksheet: A guided space for clients to reflect on their recovery journey, providing clarity during challenging moments.
• Recovery Anchors Handout: An exercise to help clients identify and solidify their core values that keep them grounded in recovery.
• Daily Recovery Rhythm Worksheet: A structured tool for clients to define their daily routines and habits that support lasting recovery.  They will keep it close by and reference it time and again once treatment concludes.
• Learning from Slips Handout: Compassionate insights to help clients process setbacks and turn them into opportunities for growth without spiraling.

These handouts have been tested in Patrizia’s real-world practice and have proven to be effective tools for maintaining recovery. They offer clients a gentle, supportive transition out of therapy, empowering them with a practical, easy-to-use resource they can revisit whenever they need support. Perfect for dietitians specializing in eating disorders who want to ensure their clients have a solid foundation for long-term recovery.   It’s a valuable addition to your practice and a low-cost, high-impact resource for your clients.
