This course explores the essential role of the registered dietitian as a key member of the interdisciplinary treatment team for individuals with eating disorders. Participants will examine the goals of nutrition therapy, components of a comprehensive nutrition assessment, refeeding considerations, and the medical complications associated with eating disorder behaviors across levels of care and diagnostic presentations. Through case studies, attendees will gain practical strategies for collaborative treatment planning and nutrition rehabilitation. The course also highlights how evidence-based therapeutic approaches- including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)- can be integrated into nutrition care and coordinated with the broader mental health treatment process. Special populations, ethical considerations, and best practices for interdisciplinary collaboration between dietitians and behavioral health providers will also be discussed. This course is designed for registered dietitians as well as mental health professionals seeking to strengthen collaborative, evidence-based care for individuals with eating disorders.
