Anita Federici, PhD, C. Psych., FAED

I enlisted Dr. Federici’s expert clinical expertise to facilitate highly specialized eating disorder treatment training and mentoring with members of our provincial network. Her unique and one-of-a-kind expertise is sought after to help fill important service delivery gaps in our system of eating disorder care. Specifically, our provincial network is indebted to Dr. Federici for not only pursuing a “road less traveled” – seeking specialized treatment training in modalities designed to enhance client-centred care and innovative ways to treat co-morbid conditions; she also set out on a course to provide cutting edge clinical teaching, training, supervision, and mentoring in these modalities to optimize capacity among care providers to provide responsive and high quality care.

Anita has been instrumental in supporting EHN in becoming DBT-informed and has worked closely with members of our team to provide coaching and mentorship on using DBT with clients struggling with substance use, mood and anxiety disorders, personality disorders and eating disorders.

Just wanted to let you know – I had attended your session on Dialectic Behaviour Therapy through waypoint (held at the midland cultural centre) a number of years ago – I was mighty impressed with your level of expertise! It was most excellent!

Psychiatrist, Waypoint

“….we ranted and raved to our manager when we got back and are totally stoked about doing a pure DBT program within EDP starting next fall …if not sooner. You are a great presenter (and being able to hold a room’s attention on the second day late afternoon speaks to it!)… the timing was perfect”

Larry Dahmer, Health Sciences North

Thank you for being a wonderful mentor who so gracefully balances the dialectic between empathetic understanding and giving me the push I need to access my own skills during times of clinical and personal challenges. You have a uniquely genuine style about you that I look up to greatly and am always trying to channel in my own practice. I thoroughly enjoyed being your supervisee and I hope the world of DBT will bring us together again at some point down the road.
