About this event

This training is a rare opportunity to receive in-person training in Perth in a new treatment protocol for Anorexia Nervosa — CBT-AN-20 — delivered by its developers, Glenn Waller (UK) and Tracey Wade (Australia).

This workshop will detail the skills needed to deliver CBT-AN-20 in a flexible, patient-centred manner.  It will address:

  • The evidence to date for CBT-AN-20.
  • The meta-competences needed to deliver any therapy effectively.
  • Risk management.
  • Formulation of anorexia nervosa.
  • Reviewing motivation and progress, including working with the anorexic voice.
  • The overlapping phases of the therapy, including: weight gain and stabilisation; emotional factors behind compulsive and impulsive behaviours; body image work; and ending therapy well.
  • Considerations when working with individuals with neurodiversity, trauma effects, younger presentations, atypical presentations, etc.

Case material will be used throughout to illustrate the key skills, along with role-play videos and clinical case discussion.

Participants will learn:

  • Ability to enhance therapy outcomes through understanding and use of meta-competences.
  • Formulation of anorexia nervosa using an adapted 5Ps model.
