Molly Kellogg, CEDRD-S, LCSW helps us understand the difference between supervision and case consults, motivational interviewing for counseling, and so much more.

Because she is a dietitian and therapist, she understands what dietitians are (not) taught about counseling and supervision and what is needed to be a solid clinician in the field of eating disorders.

She asks us to think about how it is that we learn. Sure we can read books and attend webinars, but supervision is a place to work on the specific skills of counseling and to attend to transference and counter transference described as “our personal stuff, and our stuff that comes up with our client”.

She’s a pioneer and reminds us how (even) she is still learning – “it is an endless learning process”

A word of advice is to never work alone – it takes a team to do it right.

If Molly has helped you, as she has me and many others, and you would like to support the future of dietitians learning how to provide Nutrition Counseling, check out the new Molly Kellogg Nutrition Counseling Fund through the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
