Treating Bulimia in Adolescents
Teenagers are twice as likely to have bulimia nervosa than anorexia nervosa, and are often more motivated to seek help. Yet while well-tested therapies exist for anorexia, until now there has been a total lack of evidence-based treatment guidelines for bulimia. This state-of-the-art manual is the first to focus specifically on this significant clinical population. The authors present a time-limited bulimia treatment that is based on the proven Maudsley approach to treating anorexia, and that has been demonstrated effective in a controlled clinical trial at the University of Chicago.
Treating Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating
Treating Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating explains how cognitive therapy can be used to treat those suffering from bulimia nervosa. The manual provides a step-by-step treatment guide, incorporating a number of case examples offering detailed explanations of the treatment process, questionnaires, worksheets and practical exercises for the client, which will provide a framework and focus for therapy. The authors use existing techniques, as well as new integrated cognitive and metacognitive methods developed from their recent research, to take the therapist from initial assessment to the end of treatment and beyond, with chapters covering: engagement and motivation case formulation and socialisation detached mindfulness strategies positive and negative beliefs. This practical guide will allow those treating patients with bulimia nervosa to take advantage of recent developments in the field and will be an essential tool for all therapists working with this eating disorder.
Psychodynamic Treatment of Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia
Recent research has indicated that approximately one-third of the patients who present with disordered eating also have significant personality disorders or Axis-II co-morbidity. These patients are difficult to treat and usually require longer-term, informed individual psychotherapy. This important volume addresses the challenges of treating these patients, with chapters written by established, psychodynamically oriented clinicians who have been doing longer-term treatment. Editor Craig Johnson has fashioned a valuable contribution to the continuing search for effective treatment interventions for this group of patients. This volume is aimed at clinicians and researchers working in the field of eating disorders.
