Are you tired of the lecture style CEU presentations? Or the video recordings that are impersonal that you struggle to watch? Or giant events that make it hard to connect to other therapists? Me too.
That’s why I took it upon myself to create the kind of CEU experience that I’d want to attend. I want to expand the “boutique” side of CEUs (there really aren’t many places that are doing this across the country) without totally breaking the bank.
What do I mean by boutique? Well, when you look up the definition, here are the main common threads and h0w this training fits:
Typically a small business (you don’t get much smaller than a one woman show)
Have specialized or niche offerings (eating disorders)
More personalized and hands on (check out the CEU Highlights below!)
Often have higher quality goods/services (check out the CEU Highlights below!)
Eating disorders are everywhere (1 in 11 people) and the rates are on the rise. There’s a really good chance that someone on your caseload meets criteria for an eating disorder right now. Despite this, the vast majority of undergrad and graduate programs barely touch on it. I know the only reason a single class of mine in my graduate program remotely discussed it was because I told them I was specializing in eating disorders.
So, there’s a big gap in our profession and I created the course to be an introductory bridge into eating disorders. Not so you can specialize in it (although if you want to, yay!), but give you the tools to navigate when it does happen.
CEU Highlights
-
Lunch and Networking
You will be provided with a catered lunch and have dedicated 30 minutes of time to talk and network with other attendees! So bring some of your business cards to share all around!
-
Fully Interactive
There will be LOTS of chances to actually participate and to have amazing discussions with each other over the presented material. You will get a chance to work in even smaller groups with specific case vignettes going over scenarios that could happen to anyone.
-
Elevated Extras
You will receive a few, nicer and very usable extras (if I do say so myself). Not just your standard slide deck and copies of resources, but items you will actually use either at home or in your office. The slides and resources will be provided in a more durable format.
-
Small, Intimate Group
I want to really provide the opportunity for everyone to get a chance to ask their questions, speak to each other and myself as much as they want, go deeper in this training, and individualize it as much as participants want. The best way to do that is to keep the training small, only 25 people.

Black Cat Counseling Etc., is hosting a 3 hour Ethics CEU this September 25, 2026 from 10am-1:30pm (dedicated 30 minute lunch and networking time). This is not a typical sterile CEU. I’m offering a boutique experience: fully interactive and intimate, with only 25 registrations available. You won’t be able to find this training at the major CEU providers, one that helps every clinician, no matter your specialty.

As a licensed Supervisor, I am an approved provider of Continuing Education Units for individuals with a license in social work based on the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Counsel’s (BHEC) following criteria:
At least 50% of your CE hours must come from providers that meet one of the approved provider criteria listed below. The remaining 50% may be obtained from any provider you choose. You may receive all required CE hours from a single provider, as long as that provider meets one of the criteria. Approved CE Provider Criteria:
International, national, regional, state, or local association of medical, mental, or behavioral health professionals.
Public school districts, charter schools, or education service centers
City, county, state, or federal governmental entities
Accredited institutions of higher education
Religious or charitable organizations devoted to mental/behavioral health
A licensee with supervisor status (if applicable)
https://bhec.texas.gov/tbhec/continuing-education-ce-faqs/
For LMFT and LPC license holders, the final decision for if this CEU counts is left up to each of your boards. While this training would not count towards the 50% from approved providers, the CEU can be listed as an independent provider on your Course Broker.
I am currently working on getting this CEU approved by the TCA, which if it is approved, would automatically approve it for the other mental health licenses for the state of Texas. I will keep you updated as this situation evolves.

I have been working with individuals with eating disorders in various capacities for over 13 years. I received specialized on the job training when I worked for an eating disorder PHP/IOP, and did one of my Master’s level internships at an eating disorder center. I have been working as an outpatient therapist to people with eating disorders since 2020 and is a main focus of my practice and training.
-
Cancellations must be made via email before one week prior to the CEU date. Extenuating circumstances will be evaluated on a case by case basis if you need to cancel after this deadline.

The official start time is 10:00am and I strive to be as punctual as possible. The doors to the training room will open 10 minutes before the start of training. If you arrive before hand, Office Evolution has lots of guest seating available that you are welcome to take advantage of.
-
You will receive your certificate by end of business day of the training via email.
-
If the training is sold out, please feel free to email me and I will add you to a waitlist. If spots open up, they will be offered in the order in which I was contacted. Once I contact you, I will give you three business days to respond before offering the seat to someone else.
-
Not at this time. The only discount I’m offering is the early bird pricing. The training is already priced with accessibility in mind for the value of the boutique training.
-
There is plenty of parking on site, including many handicap parking spaces available.
-
There is an elevator to get to the second floor, actually, it’s the only way for the public to get to the second floor.
If you have a specific accommodation that you need, please email me and I will do my best to make it happen.
