Cook-Cottone, Catherine; Beck, Meredith; Kane, Linda
Journal for Specialists in Group Work, v33 n1 p61-83 Mar 2008
This article describes a manualized-group treatment of eating disorders, the attunement in mind, body, and relationship (AMBR) program. The cognitive behavioral and dialectic behavioral research as well as the innovative prevention interventions upon which the program is based (e.g., interactive discourse, yoga, and mediation) are introduced. The program's cohesive and integrative nature is explained through a unifying eating disorder theory and unique curricular aspects are explicated. Preliminary data are provided.
