Psychodynamic Treatment of Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia

Recent research has indicated that approximately one-third of the patients who present with disordered eating also have significant personality disorders or Axis-II co-morbidity. These patients are difficult to treat and usually require longer-term, informed individual psychotherapy. This important volume addresses the challenges of treating these patients, with chapters written by established, psychodynamically oriented clinicians who have been doing longer-term treatment. Editor Craig Johnson has fashioned a valuable contribution to the continuing search for effective treatment interventions for this group of patients. This volume is aimed at clinicians and researchers working in the field of eating disorders.Johnson, Craig L. is the author of 'Psychodynamic Treatment of Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia' with ISBN 9780898625509 and ISBN 0898625505.
