- Describe and discuss changes in personality and social behavior that might be seen with anorexia. How would you assess for these changes?
- Provide an overview of the health consequences and medical complications of anorexia
- Create a treatment plan for a client with anorexia using family-based therapy or other evidence-based therapy.
