Description

This important and well researched volume examines the clinical phenomenon of eating disorders, exploring their longitudinal risk trajectory and introducing the Mindful Emotion Regulation � Approach (MER-A) as a starting point for intervention. The book reviews various eating problems that can originate from the earliest perinatal phase to early adolescence, and through the MER-A framework focuses on how the principles of mindfulness and the related theoretical and clinical bases underlying the construct of emotional regulation can guide the clinician to a deeper understanding of a patient�s disordered eating. Featuring reflections on clinical cases, it includes coverage of patients� difficulties in regulating emotions, their relationships with various eating behaviours and their associated interpersonal features. Mindfulness and Eating Disorders across the Lifespan represents an attempt to provide a complete appreciation of this complex and multifaceted topic, making it of great importance to psychotherapists and related mental health professionals working with eating disorders.Typham this is the title: Mindfulness and Eating Disorders across the Lifespan Assessment and Intervention through the Emotion Regulation Paradigm 1st Edition
