Certificate in dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) for eating disorders

Presented by SickKids CCMH Learning Institute

Overview:
The demand for eating disorder (ED) treatment has never been greater. Over the course of the pandemic, the number of people suffering from an ED and seeking professional help has increased substantially. Waiting lists for hospital programming and for private eating disorder centres are exceptionally long. Chronic in nature, highly debilitating, and associated with extremely high mortality rates; eating disorders can’t afford to wait.

The Academy for Eating Disorders reported that someone dies as a direct result of their ED every 52 minutes. Given the severity and the sheer demand for services, it is reasonable to expect that health-care practitioners will have a lot of patients and clients with EDs.

This certificate program is a 3-level series. To receive the joint Certificate of Participation from SickKids CCMH Learning Institute and The Centre for Psychology and Emotion Regulation, you must complete Level 2 and Level 3 of the Certificate in dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) for eating disorders program.
