SUMMARY:GSAPP Webinar - Practical Tools for Treating Body Dissatisfaction and Eating Disorders
DESCRIPTION:This introductory continuing education webinar gives participants practical tools for recognizing and responding to body dissatisfaction and eating-disorder concerns in everyday clinical work. Participants will learn how to ask effective screening questions\, spot red flags across different ages and presentations\, and document risk in a clear\, clinically useful way. The training focuses on concrete interventions—language that reduces shame and skills to shift clients toward values-based coping. Participants will leave with guidance for managing common treatment snags\, including ambivalence\, secrecy\, family dynamics\, and social media triggers. The webinar concludes with actionable next steps for safety planning\, referrals\, and level-of-care decisions\, and coordinating care with medical and nutrition providers. \nParticipants will be able to: \n\nIdentify and assess body dissatisfaction and eating-disorder risk using practical screening questions\, observable red flags\, and clear documentation practices.\nCorrect at least two longstanding myths about eating disorders.\nImplement in-session interventions that reduce shame and unhelpful body-focused behaviors while strengthening values-based coping and adaptive skills.\nExplain two reasons\, shown by research\, why these disorders can be so persistent and thus challenging to treat.\nIdentify at least three ways you can be helpful to clients with eating disorders.\n\nFor more information and registration\, click here.
