Dear Stella,
I have been using ACT with clients with Bulimia and Anorexia for a few years now
and I will be happy to share my experiences with you. Is there something
specific you would like help with? You can e-mail me back channel also if you
want.
Good luck
Maria

Θέμα: [eatingconcernsandcontextualpsychology] ACT for bulimia Nervosa



Hi all,

Yay, this is my first post- I've finally overcome the fear! Better now than
never!!

I am an ACT therapist from the eating disorders service in Newcastle, Australia.
Both myself and Carla Walton attended the last conference in London (hi again if
we've already met!!!)

We're interested in commencing an ACT group for clients with Bulimia Nervosa and
we're keen to contact those of you who already have experience in this area. Can
you please share any contacts or resources/experiences that you have found
helpful so far with this population?

We also work with the restrictive folk using individual ACT and we find this
group much tougher, paticularly when they are in the pre-contemplative stage. I
am hoping that we could post a few discussions around these issues and how
others have dealt with it sometime soon too....

Please reinforce my 'bold' move with a response!!

Thanks very much,
Stella
