Welcome to Houston Eating Disorders Specialists › Forums › Houston Eating Disorders Specialists Forum › Family Based Treatment Introduction Course
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.
