The Team
Join a highly skilled and compassionate Child and Youth Mental Health (CYMH) team where collaboration, connection, and meaningful impact are at the heart of the work. The North Fraser Eating Disorder Team is a well-established regional multidisciplinary team supporting children and youth (ages 4–18) and their caregivers through complex eating disorder recovery. Our team of experienced clinicians, physicians, and pediatricians works closely with community and hospital-based partners, as well as generalist CYMH clinicians, to provide comprehensive, family-centred care.
