Overview
Inspired by Emotion-Focused Family Therapy – and with a dose of humor – this workshop will introduce practical skills to support your child’s recovery from an eating disorder. Parents and caregivers will be taught specific techniques to increase cooperation around meal times as well as to respond to strong emotional reactions, including expressions of anger, hopelessness, even silence. Not sure how to respond to “I won’t eat that” “I don’t want help” & “I feel fat” in a way that is loving and productive? We’ll cover that too. Finally, participants will be supported to identify and work through caregiving and co-parenting challenges most often encountered along the road to recovery. This workshop is best suited to parents, stepparents, grandparents and alternate caregivers of a loved one with an eating disorder, regardless of their age, involvement in treatment or motivation to recover.
