DESCRIPTION:
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any brain disorder. Treatment is difficult to find, expensive, and long term. Most people never get the treatment they need. Access for care often starts with a therapist willing to learn enough about eating disorders to accurately assess the problem and intervene appropriately. This workshop will provide an overview of this spectrum disorder, giving you the right questions to ask, how to ask them, and what to do once you learn your client is at risk for or has an eating disorder or disordered eating.
CEU OBJECTIVES:
- Describe the scope of the problem and identify 3 different types of eating disorders
- Describe how to assess any client for an eating disorder
- Discuss intervention techniques for clients with eating disorders
- List levels of care for treatment, as well as, how and where to access them
