Summary

Binge Eating Disorder (BED) is the most common eating disorder, and currently, the best behavioral treatments only work for 40-60% of adults. BED often co-occurs with mood and anxiety disorders, and both are associated with neurocognitive deficits related to executive function (EF). These EF deficits contribute to worsening BED symptoms and make it difficult for these adults to adhere to treatment recommendations. The proposed study aims to develop an EF training enhanced behavioral treatment for BED and compare its effectiveness to the standard cognitive behavioral therapy for patients with BED and a co-occurring mood or anxiety disorder.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Executive Function- Enhanced CBT for BED (EF-BED+CBT)

EF-BED+CBT will combine CBT (see description below) with executive function training. EF-BED will focus on teaching compensatory strategies to enhance adherence to the strategies recommended in CBT.

BEHAVIORAL

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT will be based on the "Overcoming Binge Eating" book. All participants will be provided a copy of the book. CBT addresses disturbed eating patterns and problematic thoughts/beliefs related to eating, shape and weight that contribute to binge eating. CBT is the current gold standard treatment for BED.
