Working with Parents Caring for a Multi Diagnostic ED Teen/Young Adult that Hasn't Been Helped by Past Treatments
🗓 April 13, 2026 | ⏰ 12:00–1:30 pm EST
🎙 Featuring Lucene Wisniewski, PhD, Founder of the Center for Evidence Based Treatment (CEBT)
Teens and young adults with multi diagnostic eating disorder presentations—especially those who have not benefited from traditional treatment—often leave parents feeling exhausted, terrified, and unsure where to turn next. Many caregivers report doing “everything right” (multiple levels of care, limits, engagement) and still watching their child remain stuck or deteriorate.
Sponsored by Collaboration Practices, this 90 minute webinar will introduce MED DBT, an adaptation of Dialectical Behavior Therapy for complex eating disorder presentations. Dr. Wisniewski will focus on how to engage and equip parents as integral members of the treatment team, including how to hold loving, effective limits with high risk teens and young adults.
By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
• Identify patients for whom MED DBT may be appropriate
• Articulate how MED DBT differs from standard DBT and standard ED treatment
• Identify strategies to instill hope in parents whose adolescents/young adults have not responded to past ED treatments
