In this one-hour presentation, Dr. Marcia Nickow and Roseann Rook will discuss process addictions that may either co-occur with eating disorders or emerge during the eating disorder recovery process.

Additionally, the presentation will address underlying trauma often associated with process addictions as well as the benefit of group psychotherapy and 12-step fellowships.
