Summary

This project aims to establish the feasibility and acceptability of a comprehensive mind and body intervention; specifically a mindfulness-based interoceptive exposure (MBIE) for families of youth diagnosed with avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). This project will: (1) explore the feasibility of recruitment, retention, and data collection procedures with youth with ARFID at end of treatment, (2) establish the acceptability and adherence of the MBIE intervention, and (3) evaluate the number of MBIE sessions required to observe changes in the number of foods avoided and mindfulness skills.
