Butterfly’s Youth Program, a skills-based group therapy treatment program for young people aged 18 to 25, is open for referrals. The program is based on Enhanced Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT-E) and Butterfly’s clinicians are trained to work with young people living with body image issues and eating disorders. The program is currently delivered via Zoom and is open to anyone aged 18 and 25 years, anywhere in Australia.
In a safe, supportive and recovery-focused environment, trained clinicians will aim to help patients:
- Develop skills to manage stress and emotions
- Manage relationships
- Increase mindfulness
- Learn self-compassion
- Improve body image
- Reduce symptoms of their eating disorder
- Build a healthier relationship with food
The program runs for two hours a week for 12 weeks and can supplement treatments participants may be already receiving.
