AE Rueppel MEd

AE Rueppel is a Boston-based mother of 3 who awoke ten years ago to find that one of her daughters had been “stolen in the middle of the night” by the insidious and debilitating disease of anorexia nervosa. A positive experience with Family Based Treatment allowed the healthy return and full recovery of her daughter, providing proof that recovery is possible.

Guided by her deep compassion for parents, caregivers and families going through the experience of caring for loved ones with an ED, AE has spent the last eight years building eating disorders knowledge and connections within the community, and completed her Masters in Health Education and Promotion with a concentration in Eating Disorders.
Using her lived experience and a deep belief that parents and caregivers are valued treatment team members and experts on their own loved ones, AE’s work focuses on being a resource and advocate for parents and caregivers navigating the ED road to recovery.
