Description
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. The course begins by reviewing current knowledge on bulimia and its treatment.
Highlighting similarities to and differences from anorexia, the authors discuss how they adapted the Maudsley approach to meet this population’s unique needs. The core of the approach remains the same, however: Parents and siblings play a key role in helping the adolescent recover.
The authors illustrate how this collaboration takes place as they walk the clinician step by step through each of the three phases of therapy. Provided are workable strategies for involving the whole family in bringing binge eating and purging under control, addressing co-occurring psychological problems and parent-child relationship conflicts, and getting adolescent user friendly, the book shows exactly how to carry out the approach and what to do when obstacles arise.
Special features include assessment tools, annotated session transcripts, and answers to frequently asked questions. Grounded in a deep concern for the health and well-being of adolescents and their families, this course fills a critical gap in the treatment literature. It is an indispensable resource for child and adolescents psychologists, psychiatrists, family therapists, social workers, and others who treat eating disorders.
