"After 15 years in the field, I have learned more about working with eating disorders from Dr. Wilson's trainings than from any class, reading, webinar or anything else. Her trainings are excellent, and well worth the time and money."

Eating Disorder 101
Gain a foundational understanding of eating disorders, including types, early warning signs, and risk factors. Learn practical strategies for supporting individuals you’re concerned about.
Eating Disorder Assessment and Safety Planning
Learn effective assessment techniques to accurately diagnose and understand the severity of eating disorders. Understand risk factors and safety planning strategies.
Referring to a Higher Level of Care

Sizeism, Weight Bias, and Clinician Sensitivity in ED Treatment
Gain insight into the impact of diet culture, wellness culture, and weight bias on eating disorder development and treatment. Learn strategies to create a more inclusive and sensitive treatment environment.
Harm Reduction Approaches to ED Treatment
Explore practical, client-centered strategies to support individuals who want to reduce the negative effects of disordered eating—even if full recovery isn’t their goal. This training introduces the principles of EDHR (Eating Disorder Harm Reduction), an approach that challenges abstinence-only models and centers autonomy, flexibility, and quality of life. You’ll learn how to meet clients where they are, reduce risk, and foster meaningful change on their own terms.
Liberation Psychology and Eating Disorder Treatment
Critically explore how white supremacy has shaped the ED field, perpetuating the marginalization of queer, fat, and BIPOC voices. This training highlights the transformative work of visionary BIPOC experts such as Allyson Inez-Ford, Gloria Lucas, and Drs. Jennifer Mullan, Sabrina Strings, and Jennie Wang-Hall, whose ideas challenge the long-standing oppressive and racist ideologies embedded within traditional ED pedagogy. You'll gain tools to apply their ideas within a liberation framework, helping clients build a recovery process that centers their lived experience and voice, challenging the oppressive recovery narratives typical of Western Psychology approaches and the Medical Industrial Complex.
With 12+ years of training professionals on eating disorder work, my workshops are designed to be interactive and engaging, providing participants with the knowledge and skills they need to effectively treat clients with eating disorders.
