Join Dr. Conason’s Bi-Monthly Case Consultation Group
This multidisciplinary group of eating disorder professionals meets virtually twice a month to discuss challenging cases in a supportive environment. It is open to all eating disorder professionals including therapists, dietitians, physicians, physical therapists, and more! Topics focus on binge eating disorder, disordered eating, body image, bariatric surgery, and GLP-1 medications. Hours are applicable to CEDS certification. This is a great space to get input on difficult cases from a multidisciplinary perspective, hear feedback from an experienced eating disorder therapist, and see how other professionals are practicing in these areas. The goal of the group is for participants to develop increased competency and expertise in working with binge eating disorder, disordered eating, body image, bariatric surgery, and GLP-1 medications from a weight-inclusive perspective.
During each session, a member presents a case and then gets feedback from Dr. Conason and the other participants. We rotate around so each group member has an opportunity to present a case every few sessions. It’s an ongoing group and we look for participants interested in joining a longer-term ongoing community.
Alexis Conason, Psy.D., CEDS-C is an IAEDP approved supervisor for the CEDS certification and this group is eligible for supervision hours towards the CEDS credential.
The group meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of each month at 11am ET. The fee for the group is $100 per session and billed in advance of each month.
To join this group, you must:
Be a licensed mental health or eating disorder professional OR a pre-licensed professional practicing under the license of a supervisor.

1:1 Case Consultation
Managing a case involving disordered eating, binge eating disorder, body image concerns, GLP-1 medications, and/or bariatric surgery can be challenging, especially if you don’t have much experience in these areas or are new to working from a weight-inclusive paradigm. Support and guidance from an experienced clinician can be an essential part of providing your clients with the best care possible. Unfortunately, there are not many resources for providers who wish to treat clients struggling with these issues with a weight-inclusive approach.
If you are managing a case in this area, Dr. Conason can help you:
Build competence in treating binge eating disorder using evidence-based weight-inclusive perspectives.
Build skills in working with clients considering or taking GLP-1 medications from a weight inclusive perspective, balancing body autonomy with harm reduction in the context of trauma-informed and eating disorder-informed care.
Develop expertise in treating clients who are considering bariatric surgery or who have undergone bariatric surgery from a weight-inclusive framework that integrates principles of body autonomy, harm-reduction, and trauma informed care.
Understand the psychological impact of bariatric surgery.
Develop a weight inclusive mindful eating approach integrating the types of therapy that will best assist your client.
Strengthen the therapeutic alliance with your client.
To receive 1:1 case consultation from Dr. Conason, you must be a licensed mental health professional OR a pre-licensed professional practicing under the license of a supervisor.
