Our podcast with Cate Mercer today, is with Dr Simon Wilksch; BPsych (Hons), PhD (Clinical Psychology), who is both a researcher and clinician in the area of eating disorders. He is currently a Senior Research Fellow at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia, leading research projects in the area of eating disorder risk factors, prevention, early intervention, and improving treatment experience and outcomes for patients and their families. He also runs a clinic of nine therapists providing treatment to over 300 children, adolescents and adults each year who are experiencing an eating disorder. Together with Tracey Wade, he has developed Media Smart, a school-based eating disorder risk reduction program that has been found to have a range of beneficial outcomes for adolescents with eating disorders in large-scale randomised control trials (RCTs).
