EATING DISORDERS TRAINING for PROFESSIONALS

​Train with Harriet on Zoom or face-to-face.
Or start today HERE with online course.

ONLINE VERSION OF COURSE

​A one-day comprehensive, training in eating disorders for counsellors, therapists and other mental health professionals, facilitated by Harriet Frew (Accred; MBACP Therapist; MSc Nutrition).

• Are you a counsellor, dietitian, therapist, nutritionist, personal trainer or other mental health professional?
• Are you seeing increasing numbers of your clients struggling with eating disorders and disordered eating?
• Are you keen to learn skills and strategies and build confidence in working with your clients who struggle with these issues?​

'I wanted to take the time to write and thank you for such an informative and enjoyable training session on Saturday. Your delivery was an excellent combination of factual information and the opportunity for some thoughtful group discussion. The break out rooms worked very well for the smaller groups too. I thought we had a lovely group of people on the course. My thought that a whole days' training on Zoom would be quite arduous. This was not the case at all and the day went very quickly, so thank you! I've just signed up to the Body Image course so I'll see you again in November'.
Jo - Counsellor

Increasing numbers of people are struggling with eating disorders

• Studies indicate that around ¼ of eating disorder sufferers are male.
  
• 85% of people with eating disorders are not underweight. This means that many eating disorder symptoms are often hidden.
  
• BEAT - the national eating disorders charity (UK) has seen an 81% increase in contact across all Helpline channels. This includes a 162% rise in social media contact and a 139% surge in online group attendance (the toll of the pandemic).
  
• The Good Childhood Report in 2021 highlights appearance as a leading cause of unhappiness among young people and indicates that appearance concerns are increasing year on year.​
