A presentation by Perrin Elisha, Ph.D.
Eating disorders are a current epidemic and often exasperate well meaning professionals. This presentation seeks to help clinicians understand the complex world of eating disorders. In the presentation, we will explore the dynamic and developmental factors of eating disorders, focusing on attachment relationships as they relate to the ability to know and regulate one’s feeling states. The goal is to develop therapeutic aims and skills in relation to this population as well as identify early risk factors in younger populations.
Richard Derderian, Ph.D.
In this timely lecture on the International Day of Peace, Richard Derderian, an assistant professor of history at CLU, will talk about the story of immigration in France and the histories of the North African and Vietnamese communities in particular.
