Cognitive-Behavioural Treatment of Bulimia Nervosa
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 October 2014
Abstract
This paper reviews the literature on cognitive-behavioural treatment of bulimia nervosa, including the rationale and procedure for including an exposure plus response-prevention component. Comparisons of the full cognitive-behavioural therapy package to no treatment, other forms of psychotherapy, and pharmacotherapy are evaluated. The evidence suggests that cognitive-behavioural therapy is a relatively effective treatment for bulimia nervosa, although long-term outcome is still far from optimal.
