The experience of complex trauma significantly contributes to binge eating disorder (BED) and body dissatisfaction. If you treat trauma, you treat BED. Sadly, few clinicians are trained in dealing with both concerns, which impacts treatment for these clients. In this session, you will learn key questions to ask to uncover whether your client has BED; the impact of complex trauma on the development of BED and related body image concerns; how to look at BED through an IFS lens; and how to avoid harm by using somatic healing and intuitive eating and movement.
