Review for FINDINGbalance, Franklin, TN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The Finding Balance team looks squarely at the "warped mirrors" of the disordered eating mind-set, the existing eating disorder labels, and the current eating disorder industry as a whole. Through their extensive, interactive and professionally resourced website -- together with their strategic use of social media and a variety of teaching tools -- everyone impacted by eating disorders is presented with a clear "mirror of truth" about the entire eating disorder spectrum. This is not only helpful for the struggling individual but also for the lay-counselor or prominent professional. Finding Balance collaborates with existing organizations of all types. Because of its willingness to team with other organizations (rather than compete against them), Finding Balance is able to go where no other eating disorder organization has gone before in bringing healing to the hurting. I find mentorship in Finding Balance, as I use their wonderful resources and curricula in empowering individuals and groups (specifically those in faith-based leadership roles) to learn and unite, and to extend hope and support to those struggling with eating disorders within their communities. Constance and her team have already done the work. Thanks to Finding Balance, you don't have to have lots of fancy letters after your name to provide cutting-edge, professional, and authentic support to others!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Finding Balance's outstanding resources and tools empower me to help others find freedom from disordered eating and thinking. Never seeing "status quo" or "superficial" in Finding Balance's character = refreshing, energizing, & PRICELESS!

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

collaboration & authenticity

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

still be the most unique and resourceful eating disorder organization available... for more people
