About

This workshop is suitable for ALL clinicians collaborating with people living with an eating disorder.

This one-day workshop will provide a comprehensive overview of two leading and commonly used evidence-based treatment for eating disorders in adults (Enhanced Cognitive Behaviour Therapy; CBT-E) and children and adolescents (Family Based Treatment; FBT). 

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Enhanced (CBT-E) is a specialised form of psychotherapy focused on helping the person living with an eating disorder to change their thoughts & behaviours around food and eating. 

Family Based treatment (FBT) is a therapy for eating disorders that involves family members in the recovery process and is particularly effective for adolescents and children.  

This workshop is not intended as training in CBT-E or FBT. It is designed for health professionals who may be working as part of a multi-disciplinary team, with individuals who are receiving one of these treatment and who therefore require a sound understanding of what is involved in these treatment models.

This collaborative workshop will include information on:

CBT-E

• The development of CBT-E
• Transdiagnostic theory on which it is based and the evidence base for this treatment
• The four stages of CBT-E

       1. Starting well and achieving early behavioural change

       2. Progress review and planning

       3. Tackling cognitive and behavioural maintaining factors

       4. Relapse prevention

FBT

• Understanding of the thinking behind FBT, its key tenets and the therapeutic stance
• The three stages of FBT

1. Weight restoration
2. Transitioning control of eating back to the adolescent.
3. Adolescent issues and finishing treatment.
