Join Me for a Workshop with The Eating Disorder Foundation!
Hi everybody! I am excited to share that I am partnering with the Eating Disorder Foundation to lead a virtual workshop this Friday, March 14th at 10AM MDT. The workshop is free of cost and everybody is welcome. Register here!
I am grateful for the opportunity to present on a topic I am passionate about: the connection between Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and eating disorders. Depending on the type of eating disorder, it is estimated that up to 69% of individuals who struggle with eating disorders also experience symptoms of OCD. Both eating disorders and OCD are highly complex, deeply painful conditions that deserve informed and compassionate care. However, many providers are not equipped to treat both disorders simultaneously.
In this hour-long workshop, we will:
Delve into some myths and misunderstandings about OCD
Explore how OCD may show up with eating disorders
Examine the relationship between OCD and specific eating disorders like ARFID, Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder, Orthorexia, and more
Discuss effective treatment options for individuals who may find themselves at the intersection of an eating disorder and OCD
Please reach out if you have any questions! If you are unable to join us for the live event, a recording will be available on YouTube later on.
Hope to see you there!
