The aim of this abstract is shown the results obtained working, into a group model, with adolescents that suffer eating disorders.
One issue that is common with that group of patients is a social dysfunction that makes them to isolate or start risk conducts as a way to integrate with partners.
In some cases, isolation or risks conducts are difficult to work in a individual or family therapy model, as both of them are lack of the generational issues that adolescents live daily.
So, although they may accept the need to improve their relations and social functioning, they will argue that it is not possible and that parents or therapists do not know about how difficult is that in their world.
That way, in this group of patients, it is not rare that therapy become a frustrating experience that enworse patients.
One solution could be group therapy because it solves generational issues and let patients help other patients to improve.
The problem is that when we put together patients with eating disorders one risk is that eating conduct hidden other goals.
We analyse our experience with adolescents with eating disorders and group therapy, explaining our model, goals, problems and solutions.
