Live Online Training
Friday, October 20, 2023
9:30am-12:30pm ET

NYSED and ASWB/ACE approved for 3 CE contact hours

Eating, a fundamental process for sustaining life, is susceptible to dis/order that can put individuals at risk for developing serious and potentially life-threatening complications. This training will delve into the complexities of feeding and eating, particularly in the context of child and adolescent development. Using an intersectional framework, a review of research, clinical anecdotes and theories to address disordered eating patterns, and the afflicted body as a by-product, will be discussed. Further contextualizations will be provided to target troubled identity and emotional regulation processes. The influence of family systems, early relationships, and culture will be explored. Finally, the implementation of empirically-supported treatments and techniques for feeding and eating disorders will be reviewed and applied to clinical material.
