About this event

Day 1: Body image work: A practical guide for clinicians supporting body image

In this 1 day (or day 1 of 2 available trainings) you will learn to work with a comprehensive and personalised visual metaphor that simplifies the multifaceted contributors to body dissatisfaction. This framework is applicable to all clients experiencing body image concerns, whether or not they have an eating disorder. You’ll be guided to use this tool collaboratively with clients to implement meaningful change, drawing on evidence-based strategies delivered in a trauma-informed and weight-neutral way. You’ll also build your own repertoire of experiential skills for delivering body image work and grow your confidence in tailoring support to meet each client’s needs.

Learning outcomes Day 1, you will learn how to:

• Develop a personalised visual metaphor that simplifies the complex individual, social, and cultural factors contributing to body dissatisfaction
• Understand the different body image goals and philosophies, and feel more confident in helping clients choose an approach that aligns with their unique needs
