Shifting negative attitudes toward food and body Part 1
Exploration of the clients’ concerns and psychoeducation
Scenario: A client has been referred to you who has become aware that they have a poor relationship with food and a poor body image. Altering these negative attitudes may take many months of hard work for the client. Marina will use accounts of her experiences with clients to describe this transformation of attitude.
The presentation covers exploration and psychoeducation with the client about:
- The spectrum of eating behaviours
- The diet cycles
- Nutrition/ food needs hierarchies
- Re-building trust with ‘off-limits’ foods
- Planting seeds of doubt around weight being significantly within our control
- Detangling weight from health
- Exploring body image
