Josephine, a 20-year-old female salsa instructor, is seeking counseling for an eating disorder. She struggles with guilt over fried foods prepared by her Honduran and Guatemalan mother and compensates with excessive exercise or purging. Her recent labs and weight of 117 pounds at 5'2" concern her doctor. The counselor determines Josephine is in the contemplation stage of change based on her desire to change behaviors but ambivalence about changing family routines. Rapport would be built by active listening and validating her cultural background and struggles. Behavior change would be encouraged using motivational interviewing, cognitive restructuring, and psychoeducation on healthy exercise habits versus excessive or compensatory exercise.

NS420-1: Apply professional nutritional counseling skills to a
client session
Instructions
Imagine yourself in the role of a Nutrition Counselor and
Josephine in your client. Josephine
is a 20-year-old female who is present for an eating disorder not
otherwise specified. She
currently teaches salsa lessons at the community college and is
in her last semester of
college. She reports she is living at home and the food her mom
prepares is not the
2. healthiest because her mom is from Honduras and her father is
from Guatemala, so the
food is prepared differently. She indicates she has been thin all
her life, but she began
struggling with her weight as soon as she went through puberty.
Since she is a salsa
instructor, she has to remain fit. She reports she feels very
guilty if she has consumed fried
foods during the day, but since that is the way her mom
primarily cooks, she feels awful to
tell her mom to stop cooking that way. She reports if she does
consume too much fried
foods or junk food, she will run at least 2-3 miles that day or
else force herself to vomit, but
all the food does not come out. She reports sometimes if she has
a later class, she will not
eat dinner or only eat 1 meal per day. She has tried counting
calories, but then she gets so
mad at herself for having more than 1200 calories it causes her
to exercise more, which
then leads her to feeling exhausted. She indicates she is on no
medication, but does take a
multivitamin when she remembers. She indicates she has gone
from 110 pounds to 125
3. pounds over 5 years and wants to be back down to 110 or even
less. She also had gone to
the doctor and he was quite concerned with her lab values. She
has provided you a 24 hour
