Treating Eating Disorders in the Digital Age

Eating disorders are complex disorders that affect nearly all domains of functioning and pose an increased risk for serious medical complications and suicide. Standard treatment plans for eating disorders include a combination of psychotherapy, medical care and monitoring, nutritional counseling, and psychotropic medications -- resulting in the necessity for clinicians to possess a high level of specialized and cross-disciplinary knowledge.  As such, these complex disorders require additional considerations when it comes to providing care to individuals with eating disorders via Telehealth.  In addition to exploring the biopsychosocial factors associated with the development and maintenance of eating disorders, this course will include how to assess for level of care/telehealth appropriateness and how to modify standard eating disorder treatment protocols for virtual treatment.
