Cognitive-behavioral therapy for nervous bulimia and psychogenic overeating. Agrass V. Stuart, El

This book is intended for psychotherapists who seek to provide their customers with practical assistance in the treatment of nervous bulimia and psychogenic overeating. The leadership is based on the principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy (KPT), which in a number of clinical studies has proven its effectiveness in the treatment of food disorders. The methods of KPT help customers cope with food disturbances through strategies for normalizing the power pattern, eliminating overeating and purification triggers, as well as regulation of emotions and solving problems. At each session, the therapist prescribes homework that play an important role in maintaining customer motivation throughout the treatment. The final stage consists of analyzing positive changes that occurred during treatment, as well as discussion of relapse prevention and those aspects of treatment that need to be improved.
