We are pleased to share our recorded webinar & discussion “Students and Eating Disorders: How School and Eating Disorder Treatment Synergize” featuring BALANCE eating disorder treatment center™ Founder Melainie Rogers, Academic’s West Founder Dr. Evan Flamenbaum, and Monte Nido Regional Outreach Manager Denise Limongello to learn the opportunities for a student’s success when a school and mental health treatment facility collaborate for eating disorder recovery.

Eating disorders are complex mental illnesses with high hereditary factors influenced by various risk factors. Student life escalates stress, social pressure, freedom around food choices, and schedule changes.

The prevalence of eating disorders among school-age individuals compels schools and educators to understand their influential role in identifying and supporting a student’s recovery.

In this panel discussion, hear from outpatient and residential eating disorder clinicians and the head of a therapeutic school.

Our panelists unpack the answers to questions, such as:
- What are common misconceptions about eating disorders?
- What is the role of the school professional in eating disorder detection?
- How can a school help positively influence a student’s choice to seek treatment?
- What is helpful to say and what is not?
- What types of treatment are available for students?
- Who on the school's staff works with the treatment center?
- What happens to school performance if a student is recommended for an eating disorder program?
- When and how and when does treatment end?
- What actions can schools implement to support a student’s eating disorder recovery?
- Are there preventative measures a school can take to impact disordered eating and body image?

The negative impact of an eating disorder on a student's cognitive ability and decision-making process can be immense.

This discussion is here to help you...
- Leave empowered, knowing the reality versus myths of eating disorders.
- Understand the importance of a school professional's role in the early detection of eating disorders.
- Gain tips on how to approach students.
- Learn how eating disorder treatment and academia effectively collaborate.
- Acquire ways to adapt academia to prioritize treatment and recovery.
