"Contacting and Transforming The Eating Disorder Self" - In-Person CE with Carolyn Costin

Join renowned eating disorder expert Carolyn Costin for an exclusive in-person CE event, "Contacting and Transforming The Eating Disorder Self". 

Abstract:
Everyone who has an eating disorder was born with a healthy self but overtime, for a variety of reasons, several risk factors have come together to create a perfect storm, resulting in an eating disorder. The individual  develops a whole separate ego state that has a different set of thoughts, beliefs and behaviors than they used to have and one they would  not hold anyone else to. Our job as providers is to strengthen the client's Healthy Self so it can get back in control and put the eating disorder self out of a job. Carolyn Costin, recovered from her own eating disorder when she was in her late teens, has spent her entire career helping clients eating disorder clients recover and training others how to do so. In this presentation Carolyn will discuss in detail how clinicians can help transform each client's eating disorder self.
