Description

The primary goal of this training is to offer mental health and substance use disorder providers the knowledge, tools, and structure to develop insight into the features of eating disorders that may present for individuals in recovery from addiction. Participants will gain an understanding of the process and application of psychological inquiry and skills relevant to mental health support and behavioral change.

Presenter

Heather Hamilton, PhD, began her career in mental health with the prestigious Talbott Recovery Center in Atlanta where she specialized in the treatment of mood, personality, and addictive disorders. While working there, she co-authored, A New Path – Personality Styles and Recovery from Addiction. After relocating to Washington State, Hamilton turned her focus from dual diagnosis to integrated care. Since 2015, team “BreakThrough!” has been addressing the mental health disorders that lead to emotional eating and the development of type 2 diabetes and obesity. Hamilton and the BreakThrough! team are passionate about integrated care, research, and developing practical approaches to challenging problems. A family legacy of losses spurs her dedication to developing evidence-based courses and interventions to help individuals and groups recover from emotional eating and the development of bi-directional disorders.
