CBT-ED

I recently finished reading Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Eating Disorders by Christoper G. Fairburn. *POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT* Rating: unrated

"This book provides the first comprehensive guide to enhanced cognitive behavior therapy (CBT-E), the leading empirically supported treatment for eating disorders in adults. Written with the practitioner in mind, the book demonstrates how this transdiagnostic approach can be used with the full range of eating disorders seen in clinical practice. Christopher Fairburn and colleagues describe in detail how to tailor CBT-E to the needs of individual patients, and how to adapt it for patients who require hospitalization. Also addressed are frequently encountered co-occurring disorders and how to manage them. Reproducible appendices feature the Eating Disorder Examination interview and questionnaire.

CBT-E is recognized as a best practice for the treatment of adult eating disorders by the U.K. National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)."

This treatment manual was a read that I did to help improve my treatment with my clients who are suffering from disordered eating habits and eating disorders, and I am happy to say that it was very resourceful, helpful, and educational.

Happy Reading :)
