Fiona Sutherland and Lisa Pearl Supervision Training for Dietitians - starting soon! Beth says "Don't hesitate - trust me, you won't regret taking this training now!!" This is Part 2 of 2 on skill development for dietitian supervisors providing supervision-from highly seasoned to just considering. Our guests (and host) participate in lifetime supervision - it is the best connection resource for dietitians, especially those who work in behavioral health nutrition. Focusing on our client, focusing on ourselves, focusing on the relationship of our client to ourselves. What's the difference between supervision and consultation? Let's face it, there is good supervision (supportive, nurturing, positively life changing for the dietitian and client) and not so good supervision (checking the boxes, feels like a money-making plan more than a relationship). Defining the rupture - the part of us that rushes in and needs to know/needs to give the answers; how do we learn more about those parts? All cities tour flyer - Supervisor Training Event 2024

Dr. Kamila Cass, PhD, CEDS-S, (she/her/hers) Dr. Cass tells us that our patients can FEEL when we believe them and that they need to know, so strongly, that they have a right to treatment no matter how many times they need it. They have a right to be wrestling with their eating disordered cognitions- it's not their fault that these thoughts were there it's happening to them they didn't ask for them. Mechanisms of ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) Fearing consequences of eating (how food will impact the way their body feels, vomiting, choking, how they will feel in their body) Lack of interest in eating – COVID and disruptions of waking and sleeping patterns Malnourished due to sensory sensitivity – unpleasant, narrow variety of food choices They usually WANT to gain weight. Let's create a home where they feel safe and very believed. The full team is used: OT, PT, and RD in service of treating them where they need it most. EDE-Q doesn't work for ARFID Why don't clinicians BELIEVE what's happening? What's happening in the brain? ARFID – goes back to childhood, maybe infancy, maybe had a hard time eating back then. Check out this episode of the SesaonED RD with Dr. Jenny Thomas on ARFID. Dr. Cass' Seasonings: *Dr. Bulik's research – Eating Disorders as a psycho-metabolic condition. Dr. Bulik's episode. *This is not just in the head, we need to believe and UNSHAME having a mental illness *Patients can open up and do the very hard work when they are completely believed. *Eating Disorders have little to do with poor parenting and everything to do with providing support and being an agent of change. *Family-based treatment *Have hope and with the same amount of courage our clients have, *People do get better, leaning into the support of the community. *Supervision! Bio: Dr. Kamila Cass, PhD, CEDS-S, completed her master's and Ph.D. in clinical psychology at the University of Missouri-Columbia and her predoctoral psychology residency at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

Erin Nicole Harrop, LICSW, PhD What is it like to compare treatment received for anorexia nervosa when you're at the low end of the weight spectrum (“typical”) and then not at the lower end (“atypical”). Dr Erin Harrop describes this experience, how they were treated and what it felt like. And then gives us professionals tips to do better. Believe your patient If you're going to disbelieve, bring the same curiosity you would for low weight AN. Get specific, ask questions (pringles example) Acknowledge thin privilege and the social power differential. It's not just weight stigma that influences how we feel about our bodies, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia. Explain “While I try, however imperfectly, to address the effects of weight stigma, nutrition work is never neutral – always taking a side on weight and wellness. "Cheeseburger challenge" – may feel like a dare from my dietitian Abbi asks an important question – “How do I do this weight inclusive work and honoring my thin privilege when it feels uncomfortable?” Ignoring discrimination is a privilege of people with privilege Ethical care acknowledges weight stigma. Here's a way to tee-up a weight inclusive approach... As a nutrition provider I don't focus on weight. “I'm going to make mistakes, I'm deeply committed to giving you the BEST, most ethical, MOST proficient care that I can, and I'm gonna keep showing up and IF something happens as we're working together that makes you feel uncomfortable, please let me know because I'm learning too. I want to do the best I can to not cause further harm.” What NOT to say, “I'm not going to let you get fat” AND if we make mistakes we can (and should) repair. Part of the healing is actually treating higher weight patients like eating disorder patients. Article discussed today: You Don't Look Anorexic New York Times Erin's Seasonings: Believe your client Come with the same curiosity about food intake and activity regardless of weight Bio: Dr. Erin Harrop is an Assistant Professor at the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work.

Dr .Dennis shares that at ACUTE, teaching is happening every day, incorporating many learners on the unit: medical residents, OT, PT, ST… Physical changes are discussed, such as the amount of muscle loss and weakness that is significant in this population. A call to all professionals who are well-intentioned but if not adapted to EDs, are doing harm. What is Rhabdo? ACUTE is studying weight disruptions, weight suppression.

Dr. Jenny Thomas, PhD What is Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder? Restriction without body image What would cause someone to restrict food if it wasn't to change the body? Phenotypes described - Three types can occur in same individual Sensory sensitivity presentation – textures Trauma – vomiting, choking, pain in belly Lack of Interest – “I forget to eat”, don't get hungry and get full quickly (ARFID Plus) What works? - Exposure therapy, Cooking therapy, sometimes speech therapy, eating at regular times, the body will come to expect that. Division of responsibility doesn't match this diagnosis. Enough preferred foods first so enough calories, then slowly introduce variety. CBT-AR – patients will report hunger simply from the act of eating. Develop a cadence of appetite. What does CCK have to do with this?

Meghan Foley, RD, CEDRD-S Meghan shares her style when working with clients at the highest level of care for eating disorders. “Being a dietitian in this field is the best of both worlds.” Statements like “This isn't going to get easier until you just do it” and “We have to feed you through this” help us know our decisions as RDs won't be popular but can immobilize and heal.

Janice Baker MBA RDN CDCES CNSC BC-ADM From Janice Baker's bookshelf to our ears, Janice is one of the greatest teachers for me, especially when it comes to diabetes care and the intersections of diet culture, weight focus and eating disorders. Weight-centric care is "baked into" our trainings, but is getting better. What do we do when someone needs to pay attention to carbs and dosing insulin, at times it feels disorders to be rigid? During her formal education, she remembers it was a beautiful time with cultural foods and dairy and full fat foods without fear. Then the fat free era resulted in foods that tasted like pencil erasers - Avocados were called green fat bombs Pop culture of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM's) in gyms, measuring insulin, waist trimmers, GLP1 receptor agonist, decrease appetite, slows down gastric motility, being marketed as alternative to bariatric surgery.

She shares how to avoid comparisons Advises to never talk about how bad you were – only share things when relevant Conscious eating scores can help Learn how to channel the characteristics like Type A – instead of counting calories I went to conferences and learned Temperament is a risk factor – perfectionism, anxiety = high energy, obsessiveness = detail oriented Been there done that – article with Craig Johnson, you can get stuck on the why, HAVE to work on the HOW. Been There, Done That: Clinicians' Use of Personal Recovery in the Treatment of Eating Disorders Bio: Carolyn Costin MFT is a renowned, sought-after eating disorder clinician, author of 6 books, and international speaker. Recovered herself and treating eating disorders since 1979, Carolyn was first to speak out that people with eating disorders can become fully recovered. 15 years into private practice and after running hospital units, Carolyn, unhappy with the relapse rate, recognized a need and opened Monte Nido, the first eating disorder residential facility. Currently Carolyn trains and certifies eating disorder coaches at The Carolyn Costin Institute, filling another gap in support resources. Carolyn is a passionate, inspiring force in the eating disorder field. https://www.carolyn-costin.com/ Books by Carolyn Costin Carolyn@carolyncostin.com Sponsored by Within Health Visit the website at https://withinhealth.com/ or email us at hello@withinhealth.com With your host Beth Harrell
Elyssa Toomey, RDN, CEDS-S, RYT So many people (physical therapists, yoga instructors, personal trainers) can be brought into the web of people that are trying to help clients be connected and create a peaceful relationship with food and their body How do we hold space for our clients as dietitians, especially virtually? What are the non-negotiable things I need as a clinician as a human, so that I can show up for my clients as my best self? We need self-care and support to do this work well. Our patients need to give us permission to help them do the work of recovery, in order to give them autonomy and empower them to feel that they can succeed. How do we learn how to incorporate breathwork into our client sessions? Balance curiosity and compassion in your work with clients Lived experience versus lived expertise Help clients consider: how will these foods nourish them physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually? It is not our job to fix our client's eating disorders – it IS our job to be the container for distress. Elyssa's Seasonings: Supervision with Melanie Rogers (podcast episode with Melainie on orthorexia) and Jessica Setnick - podcast episode with Jessica.

Fiona Sutherland, APD Food and eating and the way we regard our bodies can't be disconnected from the other parts of our lives. Bring questions and a reflective spirit to supervision. Supervision is a powerful burnout-protective mechanism Burnout can carry with it feelings of shame, especially for new dietitians. But, it is not abnormal; many professionals experience burnout. Eating disorder work requires a lot from practitioners. We need to recognize honestly the weight of the work we're doing and acknowledge the help we need to continue to do the work well. It's not just our clients who are on a journey of healing- we are too. Our nervous systems are both in the room together, and we need to acknowledge this. Being in a community of dietitians on Facebook is not the same as supervision and it cannot replace supervision. When we elevate supervision, we set a higher standard of care to expect of ourselves and each other when doing this work. I can be who I am right now and that is enough. This feeling can be “supercharged” by being in supervision. Is it enough to just sit with someone and be present for a person as they're telling me something difficult? We are trained to “get to the good stuff,” that is, the action steps towards behavior change for our clients. But that does not always have to be the ultimate priority for time with our clients. We don't always have to be “fix it” people.

Alison St. Germain, MS, RD Like so many dietetics students and nutrition professionals, Alison ended up working in dietetics as a result of her own disordered relationship with food. She has since realized how much freedom there is from shame and embarrassment in sharing her story, now that she has recovered. Her first RD job was at WIC, where she first learned about Ellyn Satter, the Division of Responsibility, and Intuitive Eating. Though these things were not a part of her university dietetics program, they struck an interest with her. Alison has learned (and teaches) that more often than not, weight loss programs help you gain more weight. We need to consider sleep, stress, and access to food Trying to get word OBESITY taken out of healthcare curriculum -try BMI >30 or High Weight Teaching about weight stigma, harm, scenarios, case studies, motivational interviewing Providing Respectful Care with our patients Policy and making health access and equity Works at Iowa State, counseling and outreach to students, to help them with disordered eating and developing modules for lectures, or lecturing for weight stigma and weight centric healthcare. “Weight-centric programming can be very harmful and is also not sustainable.” What Alison wishes she would have known before working one on one with individuals with eating disorders: “You'll never know all of the things… however, the amount of things I learned from my clients, my students, there's no other way to learn it than to do the work… until you do the work with the client, you can't learn it any other way.” Alison's private practice- training for other healthcare professionals on weight-inclusive care and trauma informed care.

Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CEDRD-S Dietitians, therapists, and medical providers don't get much education or training about eating disorders. We are led to believe that if we don't specialize in the area of eating disorders, we don't need to know much because we aren't seeing them. You've heard previous guests talk about the importance of asking the simple questions about eating as we conceptualize the plan and goals. Jessica talks about helping people with nutrition by not putting humans into diagnostic boxes, and by recognizing eating behaviors that range from Positive and Supportive to Harmful or Destructive. “The best gift of CEDS Certification is requiring supervision, the gift that keeps on giving” but supervision is not just for CEDS Certification, CPEUs (continuing education) are available for RDs who are in supervision for professional development. Jessica's journal article & findings: A survey of registered dietitian nutritionists who provide care to clients with eating disorders: implications for education, training, and clinical practice. Jessica will be presenting with Mary Beth Kavanagh this fall at FNCE on the topic of Eating Disorders and COVID-19. More information can be found here.
