Why Body Image and Eating Disorders are Social Justice Issues: No Room for Neutral
Copyright :
Description
For authentic allyship with marginalized clients facing eating disorders and body image issues, clinicians need to more fully understand racial trauma, systemic racism, and how intersectionality impacts clients’ experiences. In this session, you’ll learn how body shame manifests differently for clients of different cultures, how clinical neutrality is antithetical to antiracist work, and how to generate strategies that will ground your work in social justice.
