Webinar from the 2011 International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals Symposium.
Through didactic and experiential methods,this seminar will address how the client’s life story can be used as an instrument for healing and recovery for the individual and the family system. Helping the person see the effects of the eating disorder on their life values and goals aides them in moving from denial into acceptance that life can be lived differently. The clinician will learn how to implement the life story process, resulting in the development of themes, patterns, and functions of the eating disorder. Within this context, cognitive behavioral skill development is reinforced as essential for recovery.
