Build Your Yardstick: An Introduction to Confident Caregiving Skills
Calling all Caregivers!
Join us for this interactive, skills-building webinar with Bryn Miller, an eating disorder psychotherapist turned caregiver coach. Backed by her decade of experience supporting families, Bryn helps busy and overwhelmed caregivers get calm, confident and connected to their loved ones through her organized approach, concrete skills and compassionate support.
Bryn, an expert in Caregiver Support, will walk you through key tenants of Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) including why Caregivers are so important, the robust research behind the model and, most importantly, what you can do to support your loved one, no matter what their struggle is or the state of your relationship.
You will leave with three concrete tools to help you help your loved one right away, by:
- Completing a visual exercise to set clear goals for your Caregiver work
- A tracking tool to clearly assess if things are working- and what to do if they aren’t!
- An empowering reframe for approaching the hardest situations with your loved one
Bring your pen and paper, this one will be full of tools you can start using immediately! (Or just come and listen- you do you!) And save the date for our follow-up webinar on September 11th to take it to the next level!
Let’s level up your caregiving confidence!

Bryn Miller is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado, a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist and Supervisor and an Certified Advanced Therapist in Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT). She is also the Secretary of the Denver Metro iaedp Chapter and runs the Monthly Connection Caregiver Skills Group through The Eating Disorder Foundation.
With nearly a decade working with adolescents and young adults with eating disorders alongside their parents and caregivers at every level of care, Bryn is passionate about supporting both individuals and their support teams to explore and heal their relationships with food and their bodies. Bryn approaches her work, both with individuals and their loved ones, with the goal of whole family healing.
In service of the mission to better support caregivers and inspired by EFFT, Bryn founded Bryn Miller Parent Coaching and developed her signature 5-Step Parent Coaching Program, The Response Roadmap. Through live groups and her on-demand course, Bryn empowers parents to access their sense of calm and confidence to better connect to their children and the parents they want to be, regardless of the struggles.
When Bryn is not working, she is writing, meditating, embarrassing herself in a hip-hop dance class and trying (largely unsuccessfully) to keep up with her own two small children.
