“I went to two open houses and I just immediately loved the feel of ICP. I liked how eclectic it was. Then, I applied and got lucky enough to get in. From there, training was rigorous. In the midst of all the challenges, the faculty, mentoring and supervision were personal and supportive of my growth as a therapist. In addition to expanding my knowledge and skills, the training program helped me build the confidence I needed to be the thriving clinician I am today.”

How to Treat an Eating Disorder: An Introduction to Treatment Modalities
Once you recognize that a patient may have an eating disorder, do you know what should happen next? Eating-disorder treatment is never one-size-fits-all. Healthcare and community professionals must understand available treatment approaches, recognize when a higher level of care is needed, and help patients and families navigate appropriate next steps.
Led by Marissa Sappho, LCSW, BCD, CEDS-S, founder of Aurora Behavioral Health, this four-session seminar provides a practical framework for understanding the treatment landscape, collaborating across disciplines, and facilitating appropriate referrals.
