Specialist Supportive Clinical Management (SSCM) for Severe and Enduring Anorexia nervosa

Specialist Supportive Clinical Management (SSCM) for Severe and Enduring Anorexia nervosa

About this event

Specialist Supportive Clinical Management (SSCM) was originally designed as a placebo comparative treatment in a clinical trial for the treatment of anorexia nervosa, and showed promising results. Since then SSCM has continued to be used, and shown to be a valid and effective treatment for anorexia nervosa. SSCM combines a range of tools including clinical management, psychoeducation and encouragement with a supportive therapeutic style, working collaboratively with clients to target specific eating disorder symptoms.

The aim of the therapy is to empower clients to make a link between their symptoms, eating behaviour and weight, and to support them to gradually return to normal eating and weight.

Learning Outcomes: 

  • An understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of Specialist Supportive Clinical Management (SSCM)
  • To understand when SSCM is indicated and contraindicated
  • To understand the target symptoms of SSCM Understand the three phase structure of SSCM 
  • Apply SSCM as a treatment for Anorexia Nervosa.
