SUMMARY:Translating Motivational Interviewing Theory into Practice for Treating Orthorexia
DESCRIPTION:The conversations that occur between healthcare providers and their clients are powerful ones\, capable of either supporting or inhibiting the innate change process that exists within all of us. When working with individuals experiencing orthorexia\, these conversations can become especially complex as “healthy eating” beliefs and rigid food rules are often deeply tied to identity\, safety\, and self-worth. The most helpful thing about you\, as a clinician\, is not the advice you give or the solutions you offer\, but the space you hold for clients to explore ambivalence\, flexibility\, and the possibility of something different for themselves.  \nIn this webinar\, Dana Sturtevant will explore how MI techniques can be applied when counseling someone with orthorexia\, with a focus on reducing defensiveness\, navigating rigid health identities without reinforcing disordered beliefs\, and gently guiding clients toward greater flexibility around food and eating.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives:\nFollowing this presentation\, participants will be able to: \n\nRecognize MI-consistent strategies for clients who strongly identify with “clean eating” or “healthy eating purity.”\nApply spirit (PACE) and skills (OARS) of MI to reduce defensiveness and increase discrepancy awareness.\nNavigate “health identity” without reinforcing disordered beliefs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLevel B: Skills and Application\nAt this level\, learners move beyond theory to actively apply knowledge in practical settings. Emphasis is on developing proficiency\, problem-solving\, and hands-on skills that can be implemented in real-world scenarios. Ideal for practitioners looking to strengthen their capabilities.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\nDana Sturtevant\, MS\, RD\, LD (she/her) Bio:\n\nDana Sturtevant\, M.S.\, R.D.
