Challenges for mental health professionals in private practice settings when treating Eating Disorders: A panel interview

ANZAED

About this event

How to you manage medical risk, parent expectations, low motivation to change, concealment of true weight, affordability of treatments, making treatment truly multidisciplinary and communicating with colleagues in your virtual team? What other challenges do you face?

ANZAED has convened a panel of three experienced clinical psychologists, who collectively represent both solo private practice and group practices in New Zealand and in Australia. The discussion will be moderated by Chris Basten and each panel member will share how they manage their most commonly recurring challenges. Then there will be plenty of time for questions and lively discussion.

Panel:

Dr Louise George - Sydney 

Marion Roberts - Auckland 

Dr Simon Wilksch - Adelaide

Moderator: Chris Basten
