Eating disorders affect about 1 million Canadians, and tend to hide behind other mental health conditions. If you are a mental health practitioner, it is almost certain that you have individuals with eating disorders among your clients. However, the majority of clinicians have received little to no training in the area and lack confidence in assessing and treating individuals with ED.
This 1-day workshop is designed specifically for the non-specialist and is meant to boost comfort and skills in the following: recognizing eating disorders in your clients, increasing clients’ readiness for specialized treatment, and beginning intervention while they wait for these services.
The day will be facilitated by Drs. Katherine Henderson and Shari Mayman, co-directors of Anchor Psychological Services. Drs. Mayman and Henderson bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in the field of eating disorders, in both intensive hospital-based programs and in private practice. They have provided training on eating disorders for practitioners in a variety of settings both locally and internationally.
