Podcast

All Bodies. All Foods. A Podcast by The Renfrew Center
All Bodies. All Foods. covers topics related to eating disorders, body image and mental health. At The Renfrew Center we believe true healing exists through community. Because of this, we created a space for all bodies to come together authentically and purposely to discuss various areas that impact us on a cultural and relational level. Join hosts Samantha DeCaro, PsyD, (she/her) and Ashley Vicari, NCC, LPC, (she/her) as they sit down with different experts in the field and those in recovery. We would love for you to join us on this journey, let’s learn together!
