Understanding and Treating Anorexia Nervosa: A Biopsychosocial Approach offers a new evidence-based intervention for anorexia nervosa that accounts for strange symptoms. The book provides an intervention that is more accurately tailored to the three phases (biological, psychological and social) of interventions observed in this disorder. The book's chapters walk the reader through motivational interviewing, dialectical behavioral therapy, and other clinical techniques to help tailor therapeutic work to specific challenges. Written by Dr. Shan Guisinger, a leading expert in the field, this book will be the main treatment guide for treating anorexia nervosa.
Treating anorexia nervosa (AN) can be one of the hardest job clinicians face. People with AN fear eating despite being seriously underweight and experiencing hallucinations. Current interventions lack options to address such non-traditional symptoms ultimately resulting in relapse.
