Presenter: Rachel Millner, Psy.D.
It is becoming more common to hear messages such as how weight stigma is bad and how important it is to be “kind” to people in larger bodies. However, these messages are frequently shared by weight loss researchers and companies leading to even more misinformation about what weight stigma is, the harm it causes, and how to work from a fat positive framework. In this webinar, we will talk about the impact of weight stigma and anti-fat bias and develop a deeper understanding of what they are and how they get perpetuated in the culture. We will then discuss how to shift to a fat positive framework that changes the way we work with clients, how we approach inclusion and advocacy, and how we think about our own healing.
