Adolescent Anorexia Nervosa and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Abstract

María Baile*

The treatment of anorexia nervosa is still up for debate. Though cognitive behavioural therapy appears to be effective, there is no conclusive evidence pointing to a single treatment of choice. The case presented in this paper looks at how a patient with anorexia nervosa was treated with CBT. Evaluation/diagnosis: A 17-year-old adolescent girl voluntarily attends psychological therapy to address eating behaviour issues. A psychopathological profile is obtained in addition to a clinical interview for assessment, providing a diagnosis of anorexia nervosa and restricting subtype. The therapeutic goals were to achieve a healthy weight for the patient's age and height, as well as to change the structure of thoughts, feelings, and behaviour that were justifying and maintaining the disorder.
