“Eating Disorders” will be presented by Dr. Carl Christensen, MD, PhD, FACOG, CRMO, ABAM; and Lori Perpich, LLP, MS Clinical Behavioral Psychology; Cognitive Behavior Therapist and EDEN Program Facilitator. This program will examine the evidence that eating
disorders are true biopsychosocial diseases, similar to chemical dependency. The program will define various eating disorders and their consequences, explore neurobiological theories of addiction, describe physiological consequences of eating disorders, discuss
screening tools, and provide information on treatment options and resources for people with eating disorders. This program is part of the FREE, annual Dawn Farm Education Series. Anyone with a personal or professional interest is welcome to attend! Registration
is not required. 1.5 hours of free C.E. approved by MCBAP (Michigan Certification Board for Addiction Professionals) is offered for each program. A certificate to document attendance is provided on request. The Education Series is organized by Dawn Farm, a
non-profit community of programs providing a continuum of chemical dependency services.
