Family Based Treatment (FBT) is a behavioural treatment empowering parents to manage their child’s eating disorder through a firm, compassionate focus on renourishment efforts with gradual transition of control over eating back to the adolescent to enable a quick return to normal child or adolescent development, reflected in both eating behaviour and daily life.
We are excited to announce two important training opportunities end of February 2019 with Kellie Lavender from NZEDC for Family Based Treatment (FBT).
For the second year running, New Zealand Eating Disorders Clinic is hosting “Hope Night” for people and their families who are struggling with eating disorders.
Today we have the pleasure of sharing with you the story of Catherine. We feel deeply inspired by Catherine’s honest, open and brave sharing. Get inspired and connect to hope.

Using hashtags like #cleaneating and #guiltfree perpetuate the idea that eating is somehow a moral issue. It sends the unhelpful message that there is a "right way" and "wrong way" to eat. Viewing food and eating this way can lead to an unhealthy relationship with food and a condition known as orthorexia.
