SUMMARY:Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (MGH Online Course - October 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Registration Deadline: October 19\, 2026 \nAvoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) was recently added to the Feeding and Eating Disorders section of DSM-5 to describe children\, adolescents\, and adults who do not eat enough food (by variety or volume)\, typically because of sensory sensitivity\, fear of aversive consequences (e.g.\, choking\, vomiting)\, and/or apparent lack of interest in eating or food. Although there is a robust literature on pediatric feeding disorders in very young children\, ARFID itself is so new that there is currently no evidence-based treatment for older children\, adolescents\, or adults. Thus\, our online course will fill an important gap for our colleagues who are already seeing such patients in clinical practice by providing specialized training in a new form of cognitive-behavioral therapy for ARFID (CBT-AR) that we have developed and refined at Massachusetts General Hospital for patients aged 10 through older adults.

SUMMARY:Reining in OCD at Mudflower Farm
DESCRIPTION:Reining in OCD: An Equine-Facilitated Workshop for Families \n​Join NECOA Boston at Mudflower Farm for a family-centered workshop that brings the SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) model out of the therapy room and into the pasture. Working in small groups alongside our equine partners\, parents and children will engage in structured groundwork exercises as a team in activities that mirror the core SPACE principles of reducing accommodation\, increasing warmth and validation\, and responding to distress with calm\, confident presence rather than reassurance-seeking or avoidance. Horses\, as highly attuned\, non-verbal mirrors of human anxiety and congruence\, offer families immediate\, embodied feedback: they give parents a vivid\, unique way to practice the very skills that help children with OCD make room for uncertainty and distress. Facilitated by NECOA clinicians alongside experienced equine specialists\, this playful yet purposeful activity translates evidence-based strategies into a memorable\, felt experience — because sometimes the best lessons in supportive parenting come not from a worksheet\, but from a perceptive\, empathic herd of 1\,200-pound teachers outstanding in their field.
