Symposium 2012 will focus on:

• The many phases of the eating disordered client's journey-- from denial and resistance to treatment and, ultimately, to recovery. 
• The full spectrum from disordered eating to life threatening medical complications requires skills in intervention, assessment, treatment, and relapse prevention.  
• Presenters from all disciplines have been asked to creatively convert the ongoing research, brain imaging, and treatment updates on eating disorders into meaningful protocols for their work with these complex disorders. 
• Our goal is to provide training that will be helpful to clinicians in all treatment settings.

 Symposium 2012 is a value proposition for your professional development dollars!

• Up to 26.5 continuing education units with basic symposium registration fees  details
• Earn up to 31.5 continuing education units if you attend preconference sessions
