Residential Eating Disorder Counselor Wellness Check

Working as a residential eating disorder counselor requires deep emotional investment and consistent presence during vulnerable moments in clients' recovery journeys. The daily exposure to body image distress, meal support challenges, and potential relapse situations can create cumulative stress that impacts your own wellbeing and effectiveness as a care provider.

This Residential Eating Disorder Counselor Wellness Check template helps treatment facilities and counseling teams prioritize staff mental health through regular, structured check-ins. The form addresses the unique stressors counselors face—from managing their own responses to body image discussions to processing the emotional weight of supporting clients through meals and navigating relapse scenarios.

Why this matters for eating disorder treatment programs

Counselor burnout and compassion fatigue directly impact client outcomes and staff retention. By implementing regular wellness checks, residential programs demonstrate commitment to sustainable care practices and create early warning systems for staff who may need additional support or clinical supervision.

This template works for behavioral health facilities, residential treatment centers, outpatient eating disorder clinics, and mental health organizations that employ counselors working directly with eating disorder populations. It's equally valuable for clinical directors, HR teams, and wellness coordinators responsible for staff support.
