Overview

Meeting Clinicians Where They Are and Guiding Them Toward Mastery in Eating Disorder Care

Explore Our Specialized Training Streams

The Eating Disorder Training Institute (EDTI) offers distinct, interconnected pathways providing comprehensive eating disorder training for clinicians. Each pathway builds clinical competence across the spectrum of DBT and eating-disorder treatment, supporting both individual growth and systemic change:

​

  • Foundations in Eating Disorder Treatment

  • Personality, Temperament, and DBT Treatment

  • MED-DBT: Integrative Treatment for Multidiagnostic EDs

  • Body Experiencing and the Embodied Self
     

​Each pathway stands on its own yet connects to the others - mirroring how effective treatment integrates multiple modes of learning, reflection, and practice. Whether you’re beginning your clinical DBT journey or expanding an existing program, The Eating Disorder Training Institute provides a clear, relational, and sustainable roadmap for clinician development and specialized eating disorder training.

TESTIMONIALS

"From the very first pages of this book, the authors' determination to relentlessly seek solutions to tough problems is evident. Federici and Wisniewski emphasize that when treatments for people with eating disorders and complex problems fail, it reflects limitations in our methods and skills, not shortcomings in the patient. Early in my DBT career, I realized that eating disorders presented challenges beyond my existing skills. This book addresses a significant gap for many practitioners, offering strategies and hope where we have often felt powerless. It stands out as a promising tool to help therapists facing extreme clinical needs, and encourages a relentless pursuit of more effective ways to help those at greatest risk."
