Event Description
This course will discuss the evidence supporting Family-Based Treatment (FBT) as a first-line intervention for youth with eating disorders. We will review the core principles of FBT, as well as the interventions that occur in each phase of FBT. We will then review common myths and misconceptions about FBT. De-identified case examples will be used to illustrate these points.
