Program for Mindfulness. Discover ways to hinder
professional burnout using a mindful approach to
stress management.

indications for a higher level of care to treat the
disorder.
- Molly Kellogg, RD, LCSW: Psychotherapist,
Nutritionist and Life Coach. Given a limited amount
of time in educating or counseling a client, learn
how to identify a targeted message and to set
appropriate goals and expectations for the
encounter. Strategies can be applied to both the
inpatient and outpatient setting.
- Lisa Jones, MA, RD, LDN: Nutrition
Communications Consultant, Media Representative for
PADA, PR chair for PDA, and Adjunct Professor at
