The need to incorporate social justice perspectives and practices in our understandings of and approach to eating disorders treatment is irrefutable. When eating disorders occurs in marginalized people, the dynamics have increasing complexity due to being marginalized, isolated, or stigmatized. Marginalized people seeking professional help may find eating disorders services unequipped to provide the interventions and treatment for their intersecting identities. Most eating disorders services are constructed for cisgender heterosexual affluent, thin, able bodied women and cannot offer appropriate services for a more diverse client population. Eating Disorders treatment programs, advocates and clinicians need to work together to ensure all individuals with eating disorders can access safe and intersectional treatment options. The workshop offers practical interventions through a social justice lens in clinical practice. The workshop asks participants to be reflective and open, examining our own privileges and power in order to move forward to ensure eating disorders treatment equity, especially for marginalized populations.
