Our Founders
Dr. Amanda Stillar & Dr. Michelle Emmerling
Drs. Emmerling & Stillar first met in 2014 in Edmonton, Alberta. A friendship quickly formed as they bonded over their passion for helping individuals struggling with eating disorders and eating related concerns, their commitment to also supporting family members, and their belief in the healing power of emotion.
With the hope of meeting a dire need for more eating disorder services in Alberta, they came together to co-found the Alberta Wellness Center for Eating Disorders in 2021.
