Delivering Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT-T) for Eating Disorders: Examining Real-World Outcomes of a Large-Scale Training Program.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy-Ten (CBT-T) is a 10-session manualized eating disorder (ED) treatment protocol for nonunderweight EDs. CBT-T was developed to increase access to treatment and reduce wait times, as it can be delivered in half the time as existing CBT approaches for EDs. To improve access to treatment, the Nova Scotia Eating Disorder Provincial Service trained 36 clinicians through a 10-month CBT-T training program and offered CBT-T provincially. This study examines changes in ED psychopathology, binge eating, compensatory behaviors, anxiety, and depression in a transdiagnostic cohort of adult patients treated with CBT-T. Further, an exploratory analysis of predictors of treatment outcome was conducted.

Methods

A retrospective chart review was conducted
