CBT-E is one of the leading evidence based treatments for eating disorders, with particularly strong evidence for those with bulimia nervosa presentations.
This 2-day training is for registered psychological therapists who have a desire to work within a clear evidence-based treatment framework with adult & young adult clients with binge eating & purging.
This training workshop will briefly cover the evidence base for CBT-E for bulimia nervosa, followed by diagnostic & suitability considerations/ contraindications for CBT-E treatment. The key focus of the training will be on teaching & practical implementation of all 4 stages of the 20-session treatment model, with particularly emphasis on stages 1 & 3. Teaching will include viewing therapy examples of behavioural & cognitive interventions, case based discussions, real client work examples, and the opportunity to practice skills in pairs. While training is focussed on delivery of CBT-E for adult clients with bulimia nervosa, augmentations of the model (working with adolescents, working with binge eating disorder & anorexia nervosa) will be touched on in the final afternoon of training. Paper copies of client handouts and therapy exercises are provided.
Introductory training in eating disorders is assumed (e.g. via DClinPsych or subsequent CPD). Strong knowledge of & experience working with adult eating disorders is an advantage, but not a pre-requisite.
Trainings are in a small group setting in order to facilitate learning, therefore spaces are limited. Enquiries are welcome via hello@nurturepsychology.co.nz or register via the link below.
