Group Therapy with Anorexic and Bulimic Patients: Implications for Therapeutic Intervention
Abstract
The incidence of anorexia nervosa and bulimia has increased markedly during the last decade. Although numerous studies have appeared regarding the dynamics of the eating-disordered patient, few have attempted to link the unique pathology of these patients to specific psychotherapeutic interventions. This paper is based on the authors’ experience as co-therapists with a group of eating-disordered patients over an eight months’ period. It addresses itself to therapeutic interventions related to the particular dynamics of bulimics and anorexics.
