Eating disorders and disabilities: cerebral palsy
Tuesday Mar 12, 2019
Tuesday Mar 12, 2019
In this podcast Tabitha Farrar talks to Hannah, about eating disorders and cerebral palsy.
Tabitha's note: I have worked with a number of clients with anorexia who also have cerebral palsy. The aspects of body image and body control justification that Hannah speaks of in this podcast I have witnessed in every client I have worked with who also have cerebral palsy. That's not to say it exists in all, but certainly people with disabilities are very under-represented in eating disorder treatment and advocacy.

Tuesday Jul 17, 2018
Tuesday Jul 17, 2018
This weeks podcast is a conversation with Aimee Becker on recovery, connection, and advocacy
Aimee Becker is the Chief Operating Officer of the Gaudiani Clinic. She spent 10 years dedicating herself to developing the infrastructure for Monte Nido & Affiliates. Inspired to join the field through her own recovery, Aimee joined Carolyn Costin when Monte Nido was only a six bed residential facility, as the Program Coordinator. Progressing to Director of Operations and then Chief Compliance Officer, Aimee oversaw Monte Nido & Affiliates’ expansion into six states. In addition to her strong commitment to superb programmatic and operational functioning, Aimee developed a deep engagement with the therapeutic values and processes inherent to the world of eating disorder treatment. Through years of leading groups on gender and sexuality at Monte Nido, Aimee further developed her fundamental belief in client-centered goals, a narrative approach to therapy, and the idea that the person is not the problem, the problem is the problem. She is developing training on queer competency for eating disorder professionals, highlighting non-binary constructs of gender and sexuality and non-assumptive models of therapeutic engagement.
