Consultation Services

 

Clinical Consultations

 

As a therapist specializing in the treatment of eating disorders, I recognize the immense need for competent and compassionate training, support, and education on the subject. In an effort to meet this need, I offer both individual and group consultation services for clinicians who are interested in gaining a more in-depth understanding of working with the eating disorder population. Consultation is an opportunity for new and experienced clinicians to receive support and guidance from an expert in the field. Each consultation session is personalized based on the unique challenges, needs and interests of the clinicians participating.

    • Presentation and discussion of clinical cases

    • Education on eating disorder treatment and recovery from the perspectives of the client, family and treatment team

    • Training on the use of specific interventions, tools and strategies in ED treatment

    • Guidance on providing culturally-competent and trauma-informed care in ED treatment

    • Discussion of important and relevant socio-cultural issues that affect the ED population, such as fat phobia, weight stigma, ED myths and misconceptions, issues of diversity in ED treatment and the influence of diet culture

    • Access to additional resources and referrals for further education and support

 

Parent Consultations

 
 

Eating disorders are highly relational in nature and can have a significant impact on not only the individual, but the entire family system. Navigating ED treatment as a parent is often scary, confusing and overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be with the right support. Which is exactly what parent support sessions are all about!

Parent support sessions offer personalized guidance for parents and family members on navigating the process of ED treatment from diagnosis to discharge.

    • Support with clinical case management and treatment planning

    • Coaching on how to support a loved one with an eating disorder

    • Education tailored to address the specific questions and concerns of each parent/family

    • A welcoming and non-judgmental environment for parents to vent, discuss, learn, and ask questions

    • Access to additional referrals and resources for increased support
