🌿 Meet Helen! We’re excited to welcome Helen to our team!

Helen is currently completing her Bachelor of Science in Christian Studies at Grand Canyon University while pursuing a master’s degree in counseling, with the goal of becoming a licensed mental health therapist. With more than four years of customer service experience, she brings warmth, compassion, organization, and a genuine desire to help others feel welcomed and supported.

Helen is passionate about spreading hope and helping others feel seen, heard, understood, and cared for. She brings that same heart for service to her work with both clients and colleagues.

Outside of work, Helen enjoys walking her dog, weightlifting, pickup basketball, drawing, writing, cooking, and spending time with family and friends. 💛 We’re so excited to have Helen on our team and look forward to working alongside her!

🌿 Meet Faith Mayhugh, MS, RDN, LD!

We’re excited to welcome Faith to our Topeka team as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist!

Faith brings experience in nutrition care with a special passion for eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image concerns. She takes a compassionate, collaborative, whole-person approach, recognizing the many emotional, social, and personal factors that influence our relationship with food.

Faith’s goal is to help clients move away from rigid food rules and toward greater flexibility, confidence, and peace with food and their bodies. She believes recovery can create space for the things that matter most—relationships, experiences, confidence, and a life not defined by food. 💛

Outside of work, Faith enjoys spending time with family, friends, and her dogs, traveling, trying new restaurants and coffee shops, cooking and baking, staying active, and watching movies. 🎬🐾

We’re excited to welcome Faith, our new Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, to our Topeka team! Faith helps clients build a more flexible, peaceful relationship with food and their bodies. We’re so excited to have her on our team and look forward to working with her!

Small Steps Still Count 💚

Recovery doesn’t have to happen all at once.

Some days, progress may look like reaching out for support. Other days, it may mean listening to your body, challenging a difficult thought, eating a nourishing meal, or simply giving yourself the same compassion you would offer someone you love.

Every step matters—even the ones that feel small.

At Unbound Recovery, we believe healing is a journey, not a race. You deserve support that meets you where you are and helps you move toward a healthier, more compassionate relationship with yourself.

Take it one step at a time. You don’t have to do it alone.

You Deserve Support

You don't have to wait until things feel “bad enough” to ask for help. 💚

Early support can make a meaningful difference, especially when concerns about food, body image, or eating begin to affect your daily life, relationships, mood, or overall well-being.

You don't have to navigate these challenges alone. Reaching out for support isn't a sign of weakness—it’s a courageous step toward understanding what you're experiencing and finding the care you deserve.

Recovery is possible. You deserve compassionate, judgment-free support at every stage of the journey.

You are worthy of help, exactly where you are today.

Mental Health and Nutrition Are Connected

Mental health and nutrition are deeply connected, and caring for one can help support the other. When your body receives consistent, nourishing food, it can be easier to support concentration, energy, emotional regulation, and overall well-being.

At the same time, stress, anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges can sometimes make it difficult to eat regularly, plan meals, or care for your nutritional needs. Therapy can help address the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may get in the way of nourishing yourself.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. Supporting both your mental and nutritional health can be an important part of whole-person care.

Remember: nourishing your body is part of caring for your mind, and caring for your mind is part of caring for your whole self. 💚

Recovery is built through small moments—often the ones that no one else sees. 💚

✨ Trying a feared food
✨ Asking for help when you need it
✨ Showing up for therapy
✨ Eating consistently and giving your body the nourishment it deserves
✨ Speaking to yourself with kindness instead of criticism
✨ Choosing progress, even when it feels uncomfortable

Every step forward matters. Some days may feel like big victories, while others may simply be about getting through the day and trying again. Both count.

Celebrate the courage it takes to keep going. Celebrate the small wins, the difficult moments you faced, and the progress that may not always be visible.

You don’t have to change everything at once. Small steps, taken consistently, can create meaningful and lasting change. 🌱

Food does so much more than provide calories. It gives our bodies and minds the energy and nourishment they need to function, heal, grow, and thrive.

It fuels:
🧠 Your brain and focus
❤️ Your heart and overall health
💪 Your muscles and strength
😊 Your mood and emotional well-being
🌱 Your body’s natural healing and recovery

Food is not something you have to earn, justify, or “make up for.” Every meal and snack is an opportunity to listen to your body, give yourself nourishment, and practice care and compassion.

Your body deserves to be fed—on the good days, the hard days, and every day in between. 💚

Eating disorders aren’t always visible.

Some signs can include:
• Increased anxiety around meals
• Avoiding social situations involving food
• Obsessive thoughts about weight or exercise
• Changes in mood
• Feeling guilty after eating

If these patterns sound familiar, reaching out for support can be an important first step. You don’t have to navigate it alone. 💙

Self-Reflection Question 💙

Take a moment today and ask yourself:

“What is one thing my body allowed me to do this week that I’m grateful for?”

Our bodies do so much more than determine how we look. Practicing gratitude for what our bodies *do*—rather than focusing only on appearance—can help strengthen body appreciation over time.

Maybe your body allowed you to laugh with someone you love, take a walk, create something, rest, dance, work, learn, or simply get through a difficult day.

There’s no right answer. 💙
