Brief Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Non-Underweight Patients

“Most services are restricted in the number of sessions that they can give to help people with eating disorders. Until now, clinicians have had no guidance about which of the established cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques they should be delivering under such circumstances. This clear, focused book, written by experts in the field, guides clinicians through a 10-session CBT intervention. It brilliantly describes the key methods, alongside the rationale for their use, and provides clear examples and materials throughout. It addresses how to balance the use of the guide while ensuring flexibility to individual needs and responsiveness to weekly monitoring. It is essential reading for all clinicians working with eating disorders in the 21st Century.” - Professor Roz Shafran, UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health, UK

“This book makes a timely and significant contribution to the treatment of eating disorders. Firmly based on rigorous empirical research, it is innovative and clinically sophisticated. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is the most effective treatment for most eating disorders, but the reality is that a majority of patients do not receive quality evidence-based treatment. By providing a briefer, less costly, and more scalable form of CBT, this therapist-friendly treatment manual can help overcome the research-treatment gap. It is a must-read for professionals in the field of eating disorders.” - Professor G. Terence Wilson, Oscar K Buros Professor of Psychology at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, USA
