Overview

Evidence-based practices for eating disorder treatment utilize scientific research and clinical expertise, offering the most effective strategies for recovery. Eating disorders are complex mental health conditions, often requiring a multidisciplinary approach to care. Evidence-based treatments, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), family-based therapy (FBT), and certain pharmacological interventions, have demonstrated success in reducing symptoms and improving long-term outcomes. By prioritizing treatments supported by empirical data, clinicians can provide care that is both personalized and proven to provide lasting recovery. Evidence-Based Practices for Eating Disorder Treatment explores eating disorder interventions, and their effects in various populations. It examines new practices in medical and psychological treatment, including innovative therapies, diagnostics, interventions, and emerging risk factors in the field. This book covers topics such as medical diagnosis, psychological assessments, and clinical science, and is a useful resource for psychologists, medical and healthcare professionals, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
