In Person Sunday Workshop: How to Treat Eating Disorders in Your Practice: A Social Justice-Informed Clinical Training (Sun, November 15, 2026)

Sun, 15 Nov 2026 16:45:00 GMT

IN PERSON TRAINING! Examine the implications of bias and privilege in the treatment of disordered eating

How to Treat Eating Disorders in Your Practice: A Social Justice-Informed Clinical Training

Presented by Dr. Marcella Raimondo

3 CEs available

This training will not be recorded. If you are interested in this learning opportunity, please plan to attend this in-person event. Please read the full event description for all registration terms including refund policy.

Workshop Description

The need to incorporate social justice perspectives and practices in our understandings of and approach to eating disorders treatment is irrefutable. When eating disorders occurs in marginalized people, the dynamics have increasing complexity due to being marginalized, isolated, or stigmatized. Marginalized people seeking professional help may find eating disorders services unequipped to provide the interventions and treatment for their intersecting identities. Most eating disorders services are constructed for cisgender heterosexual affluent, thin, able-bodied women, and cannot offer appropriate services for a more diverse client population. Eating Disorders treatment programs, advocates and clinicians need to work together to ensure all individuals with eating disorders can access safe and intersectional treatment options.

This three-hour workshop will explore how racial and cultural stereotypes may contribute to under-recognition of eating disorders among BIPOC communities and influence clinicians’ assessment, treatment recommendations, and engagement with clients. Participants will examine how weight stigma and weight-centric assumptions can contribute to missed or delayed diagnoses, particularly among individuals with subthreshold or atypical presentations and those in larger bodies. Participants will also examine how gender and sexual identity shape eating disorder presentation and access to care, including the impact of gendered stereotypes and assumptions about who develops eating disorders.

Through case examples and guided reflection, participants will examine how their own biases and social conditioning may influence the therapeutic relationship and clinical decision-making. The workshop emphasizes cultural humility, weight-inclusive practice, trauma-informed care, and social justice as essential components of ethical and equitable eating disorder treatment.

Educational Goals

This workshop will explore how weight/body size, race/ethnicity, and gender/sexual identity influence the development, recognition, assessment, treatment, and recovery of eating disorders.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this workshop, participants should be able to:

Identify three current research and clinical practice gaps that contribute to the under recognition, misdiagnosis, and inadequate treatment of eating disorders across diverse populations.
Describe the importance of holistic, social justice–informed conceptualizations of eating disorders that consider sociocultural factors, weight stigma, systemic inequities, and intersecting identities in assessment and treatment.
Apply three actionable strategies for translating awareness of research gaps, clinical biases, and sociocultural factors into more equitable, culturally responsive, and evidence-informed eating disorder assessment and treatment practices.
