Trauma-Informed Approach to the Treatment of Eating Disorders. Volume 2

This clinical guide analyzes the connection between trauma, dissociation, and eating disorders and proposes a trauma-informed phase model that allows for effective therapy for any form of eating disorders. The described four-phase model covers the coordination of the therapeutic team, formulation of the clinical case, as well as a trauma-informed approach to the treatment of eating disorders considering dissociation and attachment. The author team, uniting authoritative specialists in this field, explores various options for eating disorders from neurological, medical, dietary, and psychological perspectives. In separate chapters, each stage of treatment is considered in the context of various therapeutic approaches, ranging from EMDR therapy and CBT to body-oriented and art therapy.
