  • "Deep Thoughts" about Episode 25 with Meredith and Jill

    13/07/2020 Duração: 17min

    Meredith and Jill discuss their thoughts and opinions about Episode 25 with Dr. Ralph Carson: What's weight got to do with it? We hope you found his presentation thought provoking, powerful and informative. As Dr. Carson says, he's the messenger and all of what he presented was research as we currently know.  Meredith and Jill emphasized the importance of "openess" and importance of being able to hear what the current health care providers are supporting as way of promoting dialogue to "bridge the gap" between the the eating disorders field and the healthcare industry. As well with new clinicians in the field or to inform current clinicians about eating disorders, it is vital to have positive and open discussion between us all. Enjoy!

  • What's weight got to do with It? with Ralph Carson, PhD, RDN, CEDRD

    06/07/2020 Duração: 01h26min

    In this episode Meredith and I have the opportunity of speaking with Dr. Ralph Carson, RDN, CEDRD for a full hour and a half. Dr. Carson provides more of a presentation with question and answers towards the end. The focus of this podcast is bridging the gap between healthcare recommendations and focus of weight loss vs the recommendations by eating disorders professionals which is often "let go of weight loss" to repair your relationship with food and body. Dr. Carson feels that both are discussing "two sides of the same coin" and feels ED treatment and obesity medicine do not have opposing agendas. Dr. Carson also reviews perspectives of the Corona Virus and "weight" connection.  We encourage you to listen to the podcast more than once as this is pack full of information. Dr. Carson first starts with the perspective and "view point" of the medical community and then dives into the recommendations and focus of the eating disorders community. Finally Dr. Carson discusses how we might "bridge the gap." Meredith

    08/06/2020 Duração: 53min

    In this episode, Meredith and Jill have the opportunity to interview Dr. Bunnell.

There are more and more clinicians entering the ED field. However, there lacks adequate training and supervision.

  • Part 2: Therapy Is for Teaching, too!

    01/06/2020 Duração: 25min

    All of these twos! This was not planned. In this session Jill and Meredith discuss the education component in dietitian sessions. Dietitians have a huge role in eating disorder support by providing education to clients. Often most client "know" a lot however they "know" a lot of misinformation. A dietitian helps dispel these food and nutrition myths, helps a client unlearn and then learn evidence based information.  Meredith and Jill also discuss the concept of education or psychoeducation being a "clinician block." If you do not know about clinician blocks, check out Dr. Adele LaFrance's work around Emotion Coaching Family Therapy or EFFT. Meredith discusses the concept, "Knowbody cares about what you know unless they know that you care!"

  • Part 1: Therapy Is for Teaching, too!

    26/05/2020 Duração: 16min

    Do you provide education in your sessions? Most clients that struggle with eating disorders need to "unlearn" misinformation that they have heard from youtubers, the internet or Netflix "shockumentaries." Often those newer in the field provide much more nutrition and psychoeducation in sessions than those that are more seasoned. But for those that are seasoned, are you providing "enough" education now that your clinical skills are more fine tuned? In part 1, Meredith discusses her experience providing the delicate balance of therapy and psychoeducation as a therapist. Watch for part 2 next week!

For some clinicians this may be the first time that you are seeing clients "not in person." For others, this may be the only platform one uses.

These clients often do not realized they may even be struggling with an eating disorder. How do we allow clients to talk about a strong desire to lose weight. As clinicians in the field of eating disorders, we learn more about our own bias and how to approach treatment in HAES and "weight neutral movement." Are we beginning to become close minded?  Kari discusses that she find supervising clinicians, clinicians begin to feel afraid to discuss the topic of weight loss and often times the clinician may "shut down the client."  Kari emphasizes the importance of learning to "speak your clients language" first and foremost.  Perhaps what we say needs to shift as we "sit" in our clients discomfort.
