The gentle match
One question at a time. No numbers. Your say-so at the end.
No forms full of blanks — just tap what's true, at your own pace. At the end, tell us where to reach you and a navigator confirms the fit and makes the introduction — only to programs with clinician-led intake.
Free & confidential. No obligation. Your information will not be shared beyond the introduction you approve, and it is never used for advertising.
In crisis right now? Skip all of this: call or text 988, any hour. Fainting, chest pain, blood in vomit, or rapid weight change: call 911, now. NEDIC is a human voice any time: 1-866-633-4220.

What you get at the end of this
A navigator — a person, not software — reads this within one business day and comes back with up to three clinical-first options that fit — with NEDIC alongside, each one labelled by how it's paid for. The introduction happens once, to the team you pick, and only after you say so. When the free public system is the better answer, that is the answer you get. Nothing is ever billed to you.
Where you stay in control
Every introduction waits for your yes. A single reply of STOP closes the file for good. Your details reach only the licensed providers you approved — never data brokers or advertisers — and are deleted when no longer needed. Should nothing genuinely suit you, we'll tell you plainly and point to the public route. And in an emergency we step aside: 988, any hour.
Why these questions?
Why we ask about a doctor
Not a gate — a genuine recommendation. Eating disorders affect the body in ways only an exam can see, and any good program's intake will ask about a medical assessment early. If a doctor feels out of reach, NEDIC (1-866-633-4220) or 811 can help you find one; having that visit underway makes everything faster, not slower.
Why the pattern matters — and why we never ask for numbers
A rough sense of the pattern is enough to shape which programs we look at. We will never ask for measurements or figures of any kind — numbers are how this illness keeps score, and they play no part in a good match.
What happens after you send it
A navigator reads your answers, confirms current availability with the strongest fit, and introduces you — with the consent you gave, to at most three licensed providers, every one with clinician-led intake, who fund this service through flat marketing fees. You never pay us, and nothing moves without your say-so.
Not ready to talk to anyone yet?
That's normal. Take the private gentle self-check or read the first-steps guide — both are free, and neither asks for your name.
