DescriptionDescription:
Millions of people in the United States are overweight or obese. Medication and psychotherapy may result in some weight reduction, although almost all patients recover their weight within five years. The missing component for effective treatment is cognition. Individuals must learn how to change their dysfunctional ideas about food, eating, other people, and themselves in order to make permanent changes in their eating behavior and thus their weight. They must also learn how to cope with feelings of unfairness, deprivation, disappointment, and discouragement. Cognitive behavioral techniques have been shown to be beneficial in dealing with this issue.
Objectives of Education:
To discover faulty cognitions that are at the root of unhealthy eating patterns.
List two strategies for assisting clients in effectively responding when psychological concerns that hinder with weight reduction develop.*Content and confidentiality may be modified during sessions*
