The etiopathogenesis and therapy of eating disorders in the family perspective
Abstract
Many clinicians have stressed the role of family interactions and family dynamics in
the onset, development and maintenance of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. The
aim of this article is to provide a brief description of family features associated with
eating disorders and family-based treatment of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa.
Family systems approaches explain that the onset and maintenance of eating disorders
can be understood within the context of dysfunctional family interactions. This paper
presents the Maudsley model of family therapy for children and adolescents with anorexia.
The usefulness of family-based treatment of eating disorders lies in not attaching
blame to parents but in stressing their important role in therapeutic process. The work
with families is an effective way of treatment for young patients, but it does not mean
that the family caused the problem. It is noteworthy that a family oriented approach is a
component of total program that also addresses the biological, individual and social
levels of the patients' functioning.
