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. (she/her) is the co-founder of the Center for Body Trust\, co-author of the book Reclaiming Body Trust\, and co-host of The Body Trust Podcast. As a registered dietitian\, she helps people divest from diet culture\, explore what it means to be embodied\, and move toward more compassionate forms of radical care. Her work as a speaker\, educator\, and trainer focuses on humanizing health care\, advancing health equity\, and advocating for food and body sovereignty. For the past 22 years\, Dana has trained thousands of health care providers in Motivational Interviewing. As a sought-after speaker and writer\, Dana is a champion for weight-inclusive models of care and offers supervision\, training\, and consultation for helping professionals and health care organizations.

SUMMARY:Access Over Adherence: Neurodivergent Barriers to Eating in Eating Disorder Care
DESCRIPTION:Many eating disorder nutrition interventions were built for neurotypical nervous systems\, so when neurodivergent clients struggle to implement them\, it’s often mislabeled as “noncompliance” or “lack of motivation” rather than a mismatch between the plan and the person’s access needs. \nIn this interactive\, case-based webinar\, we’ll translate sensory experience\, interoception differences\, executive functioning\, and medical complexity into practical\, day-to-day strategies that make eating more doable—without turning treatment into a compliance contest. \nYou’ll leave with an Access Map\, capacity-based planning tools\, and clinician scripts you can use within your respective clinical practice.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives:\nFollowing this presentation\, participants will: \n\nDifferentiate common neurodivergent barriers to eating—sensory processing\, interoception differences\, executive functioning\, movement/motor planning differences\, trauma/mental health factors\, and medical complexity—using targeted assessment questions to identify the primary “bottleneck” to nourishment.\nApply an accessibility-focused framework to adapt core ED nutrition interventions (regular eating\, variety\, flexibility\, meal planning) into individualized supports that increase follow-through without reinforcing shame\, rigidity\, or compliance-based treatment dynamics.\nDesign capacity-based nutrition plans (e.g.\, Level 1–5 meal supports\, high- vs low-bandwidth meal options\, emergency food systems\, low-demand structures) that maintain nourishment during burnout\, symptom flares\, and fluctuating capacity.\nImplement neurodivergent-affirming language and documentation strategies that validate disability-related barriers while maintaining ED treatment focus and defining measurable progress markers beyond “eating normally” (e.g.\, consistency\, reduced friction\, reduced distress\, increased access).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLevel B: Skills and Application\n\n\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\nJacs Scheinman RDN\, LDN (he/him) Bio:\nJacs Scheinman (he/him) is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) with 5+ years of experience providing values-driven nutrition counseling for neurodivergent clients and affirming care for LGBTQIA+ communities. His clinical work centers sensory- and executive function-friendly eating\, feeding differences (including ARFID)\, body image and dysphoria support\, and care for clients with complex health needs such as GI conditions\, chronic pain\, and hypermobility-related conditions.\nAs a queer\, AuDHD\, epileptic clinician\, Jacs practices from a trauma-informed\, neurodiversity-affirming lens and integrates non-diet/HAES-informed principles with approaches drawn from Responsive Feeding Therapy and third-wave modalities (ACT/DBT/IFS) to support clients in real-world contexts. He has presented for professional audiences\, including CPSDA and has published peer-reviewed research related to transgender and gender-diverse nutrition care.
