Course overview

As you perform your typical intake with a new client, you review their eating habits. There are indications of abnormal eating behaviors like yo-yo dieting and restrictive eating. The client guiltily says things like "I know I should eat healthier." Your guard is up, but you quickly move along when their problems don't take the form of a full-blown eating disorder like anorexia or bulimia. Disordered eating behaviors are frequently hiding something deeper - serving as a coping mechanism for the unresolved trauma that lies beneath.
