The CBT-E is a “transdiagnostic” treatment for all forms of eating disorder including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder and other similar states. It was developed as an outpatient treatment for adults but is available as an intensive version for day patients and inpatients. There is also a version for younger people. Detailed treatment guides are available for CBT-E.
What this tool is good for:
CBT emerged as the primary treatment for individuals with BN and BED. There is consensus regarding its transdiagnostic therapeutic effectiveness across diagnoses given its ability to target illness-maintaining features and reduce binge/purge symptomatology. Strong emerging evidence suggests that CBT may be effective when administered using group therapy, guided self-help and technology-based delivery modalities.
