From pioneering family-based treatment developer James Lock, this
is the first comprehensive guide to adolescent-focused therapy
(AFT) for anorexia nervosa (AN), an evidence-based individual
approach. AFT is an effective alternative to family-based treatment
that may be a better fit for some patients. Lock explains how AN
serves as a maladaptive response to developmental challenges of
adolescence. He presents a manualized framework for helping
adolescents find more adaptive coping strategies, manage difficult
emotions, and develop greater autonomy and a stronger sense of
self, while reducing risky behaviors and restoring weight. AFT
emphasizes the therapist-patient alliance and involves parents in a
supportive role. Rich case material and sample dialogues illustrate
how to implement each phase of the approach. AFT is recognized as a
best practice for the treatment of anorexia nervosa in adolescents
by the U.K. National Institute for Health and Care Excellence
(NICE).
