Therapy Tools Eating Disorders

• successful treatment for eating disorders
• interdisciplinary work and exercise material


This disease-specific Therapy Tools edition provides diagnostic and therapeutic materials for all the common eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder). In addition to the traditional techniques of cognitive behavioural therapy, the book also pays particular attention to systemic techniques and procedures from the third wave, such as ACT, mindfulness, schema therapy and emotion-focused approaches, along with aspects of social work. And since in almost all forms of eating disorders somatic complications can occur, nutritional and medical aspects are also dealt with.

The book is structured on the basis of the interventions and approaches which are presented. With each new topic, background information is first provided and then there are tips on how to use the work materials, followed by lots of information and worksheets, questionnaires and exercises.
