Although movement is commonly understood to have helpful benefits, it is often overlooked or underrepresented in eating disorder treatment.
Exercise and movement are often associated with “wellness and diet culture” and can be part of a client's eating disorder behavior. Clinicians often feel intimidated or confused about the approaches to take with movement while working in eating disorder care.
In this presentation, participants will review recent research regarding movement in the treatment of eating disorders and explore potential tools for cultivating movement experiences. Case studies will be highlighted to consider presentation and treatment. Participants will be encouraged to consider how they can thoughtfully and safely weave movement into their plan of care as well as ensure they have an appropriate team in place to support each client's individual needs.
