After many years of working with eating disordered patients and their families, Drs. Brisman and Rabinor are pleased to announce When Parents are Partners, a unique treatment program for parents with daughters or sons struggling with disordered eating and/or body impage problems. Recent research has documented the importance of parental involvement in refeeding for anorexic youngsters who live at home. However, less is known about parental involvement with binge eating, bulimia, EDNOS, and those living away from home. Also, other research and clinical observations indicate that the ways in which parents can be effective, even with anorexia, vary from family to family. When Parents are Partners invites parents to join in the psychotherapy process to allow for the best possibility of recovery. Just what this involvement means differs for each family. One size does not fit all.
