What you'll learn

This training explores the intersection of neurodivergence and eating disorders, highlighting the impact of sensory sensitivities, executive functioning challenges, and interoceptive differences. Participants will learn how conventional treatment models may fall short and gain practical strategies to create neurodivergent-affirming, individualized care plans. By the end of this course, viewers will leave with a deeper understanding of how to support neurodivergent clients and to view common practices with a more critical eye for the purpose of honoring both client autonomy and their unique sensory and cognitive experiences.

Objectives:

Analyze how neurodivergent traits can mimic standard criteria for eating disorder diagnoses and differentiate between overlapping symptoms.
Distinguish unique risk factors for neurodivergent individuals in the development of eating disorders.
Critically evaluate the distinction between behaviors that pose physiological risks versus those pathologized due to neurotypical treatment standards.
Apply at least two neurodivergent-affirming strategies to adapt traditional eating disorder interventions for individualized care.
