Take the First Step Towards Recovery
– Reverence Recovery can help
Are you battling an eating disorder and searching for recovery? You’re not alone.
One million Australians have an eating disorder and access to care can be patchy, inconsistent, difficult to navigate …
— The Hon Emma McBride MP (Assistant Minister for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention)
Over one million Australians battle disordered eating and body image concerns, yet accessing the right care can feel frustrating, tiring, and sometimes overwhelming.
Western Australians experience numerous barriers to accessing treatment for their eating disorders:
- Limited services.
- Lack of trained professionals capable of dealing with complex cases.
- Geographical barriers for those located rural/remote areas.
- Negative stigma, misconceptions, and lack of awareness of eating disorders in general.
- Lack of training among General Practitioners (leading to delays in referrals).
Finding the right treatment option that understands and supports your unique experiences shouldn’t be this hard.
Recovery is Possible
– With the right support
At Reverence Recovery, we recognise that your path to healing is unique, and we’re committed to making the process of accessing treatment easier.
Is your eating disorder stealing your joy and potential in life?
Then, it’s time to challenge the thoughts and behaviours that are holding you captive.
Imagine a life where…
- You have freedom from food obsessions, and food is no longer the enemy.
- You have the energy and freedom to pursue your passions.
- You’re not constantly at war with yourself and your own thoughts.
- You have a healthier self-esteem and better relationships with others.
- You feel confident and comfortable in your own skin.
Meet… Guil
Reverence Recovery is a psychology practice located in Perth, Western Australia.

Rewrite your story and find meaning and purpose in your life.

Frequently asked questions
What if I’m unsure about seeking treatment for my ED?
Apprehension toward treatment is quite common. Introducing changes and working towards meaningful growth can, for some, feel incredibly daunting.
We welcome those with apprehension to still attend an appointment and relay their fears to the therapist. Treatment is individualised to your own circumstances, specific challenges, and unique person.
Remember, part of treatment can also be focussed on helping you overcome the contemplation phase. For some, this can take quite some time. By becoming recovery focussed, you move onto the beginnings of actual eating disorders recovery.
Who can use our service?
Anyone with an eating disorders concern is welcome to book and attend the services offered at Reverence Recovery.
Whether you are seeking support for yourself, or needing help with your adolescent who is struggling, we will assess your treatment needs and goals to tailor a treatment plan that best suits you.
Do I need a referral?
No, you don’t need a referral. Self-referrals are also accepted.
However, if you wish to make use of Medicare benefits during your treatment, a valid Mental Healthcare Plan, or valid Eating Disorders Care Plan is required (both obtained from your GP).
For our support group, we do ask that you attend your GP prior to attending, to complete our GP Referrer form (see Support Group page).
The approximate rebates received from Medicare for both these services are:
Individual therapy – $142
Group therapy – $35
Do you consult with children?
Reverence Recovery only conducts therapy that uses the medium of language/discussion. We do not offer services for young children where play-style therapy is needed.
If your adolescent can hold an adult-style conversation, which means they can voice their opinions and feelings adequately through discussion, then they are welcome to attend.
May carers or family be part of my treatment?
Yes, most certainly.
Family members and carers can be great agents in bolstering treatment outcomes, and we welcome their input if this aligns with your wishes and needs.
In cases where parents wish to be included in their adolescent’s treatment, we discuss the boundaries of confidentiality at the outset of treatment, with a priority focus on the index client.
It is understandable that parents are concerned about the wellbeing of their children. In the spirit of trying to aid families, and guide parents to assist their child better, feedback may provided when necessary, but only with the consent of the index client.
Do you provide treatment via telehealth?
Yes, at present our individual therapy sessions are by videoconferencing only. This is for ease-of-use purposes, and allows those in remote areas to access eating disorder psychology services too.
In the near future, we will commence face-to-face individual treatments.
Our weekly support group is in face-to-face format. Please see our Support Group page for more details.
Do you consult Saturdays?
Yes we do consult certain Saturdays. Please don’t hesitate to give us a call or complete the contact form provided below.
Do you treat other psychological presentations?
Yes, if you struggle with other mental health conditions other than an eating disorder, you are welcome to book and attend the services Reverence Recovery.
We do not shy away from complex or difficult presentations. We have extensive experience in treating conditions like mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, substance-use disorders, addiction and dependency problems, as well as other behavioural problems.
Do you accept NDIS clients?
Yes we accept NDIS clients (Plan Managed or Self Managed only).
Unfortunately we do not accept NDIA clients.
