Book Description

The book describes a novel model of intensive treatment for eating disorders, one that is entirely cognitive behavioural in orientation. In this book the treatment program will be described in detail, and with numerous clinical vignettes. The book explains how to adapt the CBT-E for an intensive “real world” settings (intensive outpatient therapy, inpatient treatment) and for severe eating disorder patients. It also explains how a multidisciplinary team can apply a single psychotherapeutic treatment. Readers will gain knowledge on the use of a “manualized” treatment in a real world intensive setting. The book is suitable for all professionals working with eating disorders (e.g. psychologists, psychiatrists, physicians, dietitians, and educators), and particularly for those working in a multidisciplinary team at an intensive level of care.
