Summary

The main objective of the proposed study is to determine whether the effectiveness of a group therapy treatment for Binge Eating Disorder (BED) is improved and attrition reduced by optimally matching women with BED who have high attachment anxiety to Group Psychodynamic Interpersonal Psychotherapy (GPIP). This study represents the next phase in a program of research stemming from a previously conducted randomized controlled trial (RCT).

Group Psychodynamic Interpersonal Psychotherapy

This intervention will consist of 16 weekly 90 minute sessions of Group Psychodynamic Interpersonal Psychotherapy (GPIP). GPIP was developed and empirically tested in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) at our Centre. GPIP will be preceded by an individual pre-group preparation session conducted by a psychologist trained in GPIP to orient the patient to the therapy. Patients are given a rationale for the treatment.
