F66 Learn To Treat ARFID Using CBT With Prof Kamryn Eddy Harvard Medical School 270127Info Location Contact More Info Event Information
DescriptionPresented by Professor Kamryn Eddy, Harvard Medical School. Chaired by Lucy Serpell, Professor of the Psychology of Eating Disorders at UCL.
Learn to treat ARFID using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy:
Since Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) was first described in the DSM 5, clinical researchers in the field of eating disorders have been working to develop treatments for both young people and adults with the condition. CBT for ARFID (CBT-AR) has been developed by Jennifer Thomas and Kamryn Eddy and shows great promise for the treatment of this challenging disorder. In her second ever UK training in CBT-AR Dr Thomas will offer eight hours of training across two afternoons via Zoom. Attendees will learn how to engage patients and families, explain the treatment approach, create a personalised formulation and plan treatment to support those with ARFID to increase the range and amount of foods they are able to consume and, where necessary, to restore to a healthy weight. The approach clearly specifies how to target early change and to tackle maintaining mechanisms in order of priority.
