ABOUT US Eating Disorders Queensland is a statewide, community-based not-for-profit organisation. We support both individuals who are living with an eating disorder; and their carers, loved ones, and key support people.
Eating Disorders Queensland (EDQ) understands that individuals, families, carers and loved ones recover at their own pace. We value the important role that Medical and Psychiatric services can have in recovery from an eating disorder and offer our services as a partner as well as alternative to the medical model, depending on client need. We are an eating disorder service located in Brisbane. EDQ is a statewide, community-based not-for-profit organisation. We support both individuals who are living with an eating disorder; their carers, loved ones, and key support people. Support options include therapeutic and psychosocial support for individuals, and coaching and community connection for carers. EDQ also provides early intervention opportunities with community education events focused on creating healthy relationships with food and our bodies. We are passionate about eradicating weight stigma and diet culture.
