(HS Biasetti 059088 2023) Emotional and Disordered Eating: Trauma-Informed Clinical Tools to Heal Your Clients'...

Course overview

When your clients struggle with eating, your first move as a therapist may be to develop plans for specific behavioral changes - a list of things clients can do instead of reaching for the fork or limiting food intake. But these efforts won't work over the long term. Emotional eating - and the eating disorders it can become - is rooted in nervous system dysregulation and disembodiment that behavior change strategies alone won't shift. The body needs to be included for treatment to be effective. Without it, disembodiment will continue, keeping your clients stuck in the cycle of disordered eating and losing hope in your work with them. Watch Ann Saffi Biasetti, PhD, LCSWR, CEDS, specialist in eating disorders and somatic psychotherapy, for this in-depth training where you'll discover how to integrate the body in treatment in a way that fosters real change in your clients' relationships with food and their bodies! Packed with practical interventions, this comprehensive seminar will provide you with strategies to: Shift from shame to empowerment from the very beginning of treatment Calm the nervous system and regulate emotions without turning to food Help clients re-establish body cues for hunger and fullness Replace the harsh inner critic with self-compassion
