Men account for approximately one-quarter of all people with anorexia, and a third with eating disorders overall. While many factors related to the etiology and treatment of eating disorders are not gender specific, many others are. This 2-hour workshop will begin to uncover some of the issues that boys and men face that can lead to eating disorders as well as some of the differences in treatment that can arise. Presenter, and CSAB co-director, Jacob Pine LCSW, has run several Men’s Groups for disordered eating and eating disorders over the years and brings an important perspective to this burgeoning issue.

Asexuality is characterized by a persistent lack of sexual attraction, and asexuality is often an intrinsic part of an individual’s identity. Asexual people, often referred to as “aces,” may have romantic feelings and the spectrum of asexuality includes various identities and differing levels of interest in sexual activity.
This presentation delves into the understanding and incorporation of asexual identities in clinical practice, aiming to enhance practitioners’ competency in addressing the unique needs of asexual individuals and their partners. It begins by defining asexuality, challenging common misconceptions, and highlighting the diversity within the asexual community. The talk emphasizes the importance of differentiating asexuality from other conditions, such as hypoactive sexual desire disorder, and the implications for misdiagnosis and treatment.
Case studies and interactive discussions will facilitate a deeper understanding of how to support asexual individuals through informed, empathetic, and tailored care. By the end of this session, participants will be equipped with practical tools and insights to navigate asexuality in their clinical work.

Family estrangement is extremely widespread, affecting millions of people regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, or class. As therapists, whether we are working with individuals, couples, or families, the pain and impact is something we regularly encounter in our clinical work. Often there is internal conflict, particular meaning attached to the loss of the relationship(s), and inter-generational damage, that seeps into current relationships. With a deeper understanding of the causes, impact, and paths to repair, we as therapists can intervene to create lasting change and support individuals and families in finding a path forward.
We will take a deep dive into this phenomenon and look at the genogram of a family in order to deepen our understanding of the clinical material and examine the personal, relational, inter-generational, and multi-cultural aspects of this phenomena.

Eating disorder symptoms are understood to be metaphors that when deciphered, can shed light on the etiology and function of the symptoms. Trauma and neglect are part of that etiology. The symptoms express what is unknown, and/or unbearable for the individual to experience or to remember. Group topics include: “Mother=Food,” The Dinner Table,” “Health,” “Too much and Too Little.” The structure provides room to expand the patient’s thinking about what fuels the eating disorder thus providing opportunity for healthy responses. This workshop describes a series of groups devised in a Day Treatment setting for patients with eating disorders, adaptable to an outpatient group.

How, where, and when to get treatment for an eating disorder is one of the more difficult and important decisions an individual, family or treatment provider will have to make. This three-session seminar on the treatment of eating disorders will serve as a primer to the different treatment models often used to treat eating disorders. We will also explore the different levels of care frequently utilized in eating disorder treatment, and when and how to decide which level of care is necessary at the different stages of the disorder. This class will introduce participants to concepts of psychodynamic psychotherapy, CBT, DBT, FBT/Maudsley, IFS, and other theories, and their applications to eating disorder treatment. We will become familiar with the nuanced differences between inpatient hospitalization, residential treatment, PHP, IOP, and outpatient treatment.
