Clock Hours: 1

Objectives:
At the completion of this program, participants should be able to: • Describe and differentiate Binge-Eating. Disorder and Compulsive Overeating Disorder • Recognize the main criteria in diagnosing anorexia • Understand the complexities of eating as a skill

Description:
In this program on the DSM-5, our speakers discuss the details and implications for practice of this new guideline which is going to change the way we view, diagnose and treat mental illness. When it comes to eating disorders, new knowledge has generated the single biggest change in the DSM-5: a move away from categorizing eating disorders by age, to a united system of feeding and eating disorders. By combining the symptomatology, it is more possible to study the links, avoiding the generational disconnects. Robert Neimeyer, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology, fills us in.
