Our Body Esteem Program (BEP) is the only community-based, peer-supported eating disorder service available in Western Australia.
We offer a safe space for individuals impacted by eating disorders to make informed decisions about their health and wellbeing, and provide hope that recovery is possible.
The programs are facilitated by peer workers who have lived experience of an eating disorder and subsequent recovery. They share their knowledge, and experience where appropriate, to enhance support. All peer workers receive ongoing training and professional supervision.
Our model of care is based on self-help. This means participants set their own goals, take personal responsibility for learning and make changes at their own pace.
Alike WA acknowledges the traditional owners of country throughout Western Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We further acknowledge the traditional carers of the land upon which our office stands, the Whadjuk Noongar people, and pay our respect to them and their cultures; and to Elders past, present, and emerging.
Alike WA acknowledges all those with lived experience, including families, carers and friends. We acknowledge the individual and collective contributions of those with a lived and living experience that is shared with Alike and in respective support groups. We acknowledge that we can only support healthy and connected communities by supporting those with lived experience.
