Abstract
The aim of the present chapter is to describe a group intervention model based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles that has been carried out for the past several years in an adolescent eating disorders (ED) inpatient department in Israel. In this chapter we will relate to the difficulties inherent in the application of CBT to this population, describe our model, highlight our findings with several vignettes, and discuss the implications of our findings in the overall management of ED patients.
