CBT-E
Enhanced Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Eating Disorders is the latest development in evidence-based eating disorders therapy, devised by Professor Christopher Fairburn (a leading UK eating disorders researcher) and his team at The Centre for Research on Eating Disorders at Oxford University. It is a structured, individualised model of therapy and its aims are to help clients regularise their eating, attain a healthy weight, and address the factors that maintain eating disorders such as preoccupation with weight control, strict dietary rules, intense moods, low self esteem, perfectionism or interpersonal problems. This model of eating disorders treatment is "transdiagnostic," meaning that it is useful for most types of eating disorder and it understands all eating disorders as stemming from the same root problem which is the individual's over-evaluation of weight or shape and their control. Therapy with CBT-E generally involves 20 sessions but for clients who are significantly underweight the work is generally 40 sessions. Several senior therapists at NWCED have learned this new model and use it with clients who request this approach. We are enthusiastic about its efficiency and practicality. We are finding that our clients make significant progress with CBT-E, even those who have experienced treatment failure in the past.
Access to CBT-E at NWCED is generally via GP referral. We accept NHS-funded referrals and privately paying clients. Please contact us for further information about making a referral or for information about our fees.
