Session Length: 2 hr. 00 min. Event: 2009 Networker Annual Symposium Date: March 26-29, 2009
The key to effective work with our eating disordered clients is avoiding the power struggles that distract from their discovering their own motivation for change. In this workshop, you'll learn how to help these clients as they first step into the change process. We'll focus on how to challenge their underlying beliefs that they don't deserve to be well and will never be able to heal. Through role plays and demonstrations, we'll explore how to help clients distinguish between their authentic voice and the voice of their eating disorder, as well as how to make sure the ultimate responsibility for addressing the problem remains with the client.
