Take a peak inside
“I have attended many superficial, introductory type presentations about working with patients who have disordered eating and GI disorders. I really need more in-depth training, care planning and application in one approach at a time so I can master it.”
“I’m confident in my skills for treating functional GI issues, but when a new client presents with signs of disordered eating, I worry that I will cause harm if I don’t refer them to someone who knows about GI and ED treatment.”
