How to Treat Patients with ARFID via Telehealth by Dr. Jennifer Thomas & Elissa Chakoff
This webinar will provide a specialized introduction to a new form of cognitive-behavioral therapy for ARFID (CBT-AR) that has been developed and refined at Massachusetts General Hospital for patients ages 10 through older adults. Early data from an efficacy study indicate that, on average, patients who receive CBT-AR incorporate many novel foods into their regular diets, gain significant weight (if underweight), and significantly reduce both ARFID symptom severity and food neophobia. The presentation will cover the assessment of ARFID, the implementation of all four stages of treatment, and clinical, technical and safety considerations when delivering this treatment via telehealth. Finally, opportunities for leveraging digital tools to augment and enrich CBT-AR will be discussed.
About: Dr. Jennifer Thomas is Co-Director of the Eating Disorders Clinical and Research Program at the Massachusetts General Hospital and an Associate Professor of Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. She is currently mPI on an NIMH-funded study on the neurobiology of avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID).
Elissa Chakoff is the Clinical Implementation Manager at Recovery Record. In this role she trains specialist eating disorder practitioners in the implementation of digital therapeutics, develops clinical best practices for their use, and oversees the review of clinical capabilities in the Recovery Record mobile applications.
