SUMMARY:Teach & Tour with Community Partners
DESCRIPTION:“Navigating the Discomfort Zone”\nFREE 1-HR CE Presentation and Training by \nCristina Nanez\, LCDC\, LPC-Associate\nsupervised by B.J. Barksdale\, M.Ed.\, NCC\, LPC-S\, LCCA\nCristina’s Counseling & Recovery\n“Navigating the Discomfort Zone” is designed to transform how clinicians approach resistance in eating disorder and substance use treatment by learning how to see it not as defiance\, but as a protective mechanism rooted in neurobiology. \nClinicians will learn practical tools for validation sequencing\, repairing ruptures\, and delivering hard truths in a way that builds trust rather than causing the client to shut down. Discover how your own countertransference can serve as a clinical compass\, turning emotional reactions into actionable insights that can immediately be used in therapy. \nObjectives: \n\nParticipants will have a greater understanding of resistance as a protective mechanism rather than defiance.\nParticipants will learn the provider characteristics that predict positive outcomes and those that clients report drive them away.\nParticipants will learn practical tools for validation sequencing & repairing ruptures.

SUMMARY:Teach & Tour
DESCRIPTION:Teach & Tour\nFriday\, August 21\, 2026\n12-1P\nFREE 1-HR CE Presentation & Training\nLunch is Included\nBeyond the Scale: Advancing Size-Inclusive Care in\nEating Disorder Treatment\n  \nPresented by |\nIsabella “Bella” Nieto\, LPC-Associate\,\nsupervised by Elizabeth Bright\, LPC-S\, CEDS\, and Elizabeth Oldham\, LPC-S \nOVERVIEW | Eating disorders affect individuals across all body sizes\, yet weight stigma and size bias continue to influence assessment\, diagnosis\, and treatment. This presentation explores the principles of size-inclusive care and examines how weight-centered approaches can contribute to delayed diagnosis\, barriers to treatment\, and poorer health outcomes. \nParticipants will learn how to recognize and reduce weight bias\, incorporate evidence-based size-inclusive practices into clinical work\, and create affirming treatment environments that support recovery for clients of all body sizes. \nOBJECTIVES | \nDescribe the impact of weight stigma and size bias on the identification\, assessment\, and treatment of eating disorders. \nDifferentiate between weight-centered and size-inclusive models of care\, including the principles of Health at Every Size® (HAES) and weight-neutral treatment approaches. \nApply practical strategies to promote size-inclusive\, culturally responsive\, and recovery-oriented care in clinical practice\, including the use of inclusive language\, equitable assessment practices\, and bias reduction techniques.
