Clinician Referral Program

At MyClearStep, we believe in the power of unity and recognize that clinicians play a vital role in eating disorder treatment and recovery. We recognize this group of heroes works side by side united by the mission of helping others. That is why we now provide clinicians the opportunity to help a fellow clinician get connected to MyClearStep, but help us make a contribution toward eating disorder recovery.

Anytime a clinician refers another clinician to MyClearStep, we will donate 20% of the registration toward the approved organization of the referring clinician’s choosing. To make a referral, simply login to the MyClearStep admin portal and enter the name, email, or phone number of a clinician you want to refer. They will receive an automatic message and as soon as they join, we donate! 

ANAD (National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders)

ANAD is the leading nonprofit in the U.S. that provides free, peer support services to anyone struggling with an eating disorder, regardless of age, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, or background. Our nationwide network of volunteers understand first-hand the ups and downs of the recovery journey—because they, too, have lived the experience of an eating disorder. ANAD empowers volunteers to help others through their own recovery.

• Promote federal support for improved access to care

• Increase resources for education, prevention, and improved training

• Increase funding and support for scientific research on the etiology, prevention, and treatment of eating disorders

• Promote initiatives that support the healthy development of children

• Mobilize concerned citizens to advocate on behalf of people with eating disorders, their families, and professionals in the field

Fighting Eating Disorders in Underrepresented Populations (FEDUP)

FEDUP is a collective of trans+, intersex, and gender diverse people who believe eating disorders in marginalized communities are social justice issues. Our mission is to make visible, interrupt, and undermine the disproportionately high incidence of eating disorders in trans and gender diverse individuals through radical community healing, recovery institution reform, research, empowerment, and education.

In a recent study, 53.3% (n=153) transgender and gender non binary ages 17–81 reported a lifetime history of ≥1 disordered eating behavior" (Uniacke et al., 2021). High levels of minority stress, enacted stigma, and discrimination are associated with poor body image and eating disordered behavior in gender-diverse populations.

National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA)

The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) is the largest nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by eating disorders. NEDA supports individuals and families affected by eating disorders, and serves as a catalyst for prevention, cures and access to quality care.

Project HEAL

Project HEAL’s goal is to change that system and, in the meantime, to provide life-saving support to people with eating disorders who the system fails.
