Therapie der Essstörung durch Emotionsregulation

Eating disorders belong to the leading causes of lost life years in young adult women.
Current behavioural treatments are efficacious but reach only part of the affected women. The treatment presented in this book differs from many prior treatment approaches in that it assumes that disturbed eating behaviour is a consequence of difficulties in emotional regulation. It focuses on imparting skills that improve self-management, foster mindful and healthy eating behaviour, emotion regulation, social skills and distress tolerance.
>Treatment of Eating Disorders by Emotional Regulation< has a modular structure and is designed for use as the basis for inpatient and outpatient treatment and also has a self-help manual. It contains a plenty of psychoeducational materials, work sheets, case vignettes and background information for therapists.
