Multi-Family Therapy for Anorexia Nervosa (eBook, ePUB)

A Treatment Manual

Beschreibung

Multi-Family Therapy for Anorexia Nervosa is a treatment manual that details an empirically supported and innovative treatment for this disorder.

This book provides a detailed description of the theory and clinical practice of MFT-AN. The treatment draws on the Maudsley Family Therapy for Anorexia Nervosa model as well as integrating other psychological and group frameworks. Part I details the theoretical concepts, MFT-AN structure, content and implementation, including clinically rich and detailed guidance on group facilitation, therapeutic technique and troubleshooting when the group process encounters difficulties. Part III provides step-by-step instructions for the group activities in the initial four-day intensive workshop and for the subsequent follow-up days that occur over a further six to eight months.

The book will serve as a practical guide for both experienced and new clinicians working with children and adolescents with eating disorders and their families, in utilising multi-family therapy in their clinical practice.

'In this treatment manual, this eminent group of authors - internationally recognized experts on eating disorders and multi-family therapy - has created

an extremely rich clinical resource that will be invaluable to clinicians. Grounded in research and theory on eating disorders and group therapy, it includes a description of the background and structure of multi-family therapy followed by a comprehensive outline of specific group interventions with enough detail to allow for replication in various clinical settings. The publication of this book will facilitate dissemination of this important therapeutic approach and will open the doors to essential research on this useful and effective intervention.'

This manual embodies work that was first pioneered by Professor Eisler and colleagues several decades ago now and represents the deliberate and thoughtful clinical steps that have been honed over decades of their work in this domain.
