    Hi all!

    Empowered U is now offering a Family Based Treatment Introduction course for caregivers interesting in providing this evidenced based intervention for their loved one. We will address and answer the following questions:

    What is it?

    Why should you do it?

    Why do we like it? (trained clinicians providing FBT)

    How do you do it?

    This group is offered in a multi-family group format to allow parents to connect with other parents and 1- know they are not alone 2-provide connection and community 3-provide a time to slow down and absorb information. This is designed to help YOU as a clinician provide the support parents and or caregivers need when you have busy schedules and limited session availability; And allows the family to see if this intervention is a good fit for them.

    We hope to offer the group up to every other Friday from 9 am-12 pm via zoom. Our next group will be Friday January 6, 2023.

    Our next FBT Intensive (think IOP for parents!) will start Monday January 9th. Mondays and Wednesdays from 11am -1 pm via zoom.

    For more information or to register have families go here.

    Not familiar or understand how our program works or what FBT is? We’ve been featured on a few PODCASTS of late! Learn ALL about Empowered U and how what we provide supports clinicians and families.

    Mind Dive (Episode 18: Eating Disorder Treatment is a Family Affair with Empowered U)

    and

    The SeasonED RD (Parents are NOT the problem, even if they think they are)

    Hope you’ll take a listen!

    Also, don’t forget about our PSG if you are needing support as a clinician offering this intervention. Visit our website at http://www.empoweredurecovery.com
