Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This paper proposes clinical enhancements to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for eating disorders that utilize open weighing sessions to address anxiety about the consequences of weight gain. It outlines three techniques for clinicians: identifying catastrophic beliefs through guided inquiry, framing weight restoration as a behavioral experiment, and combining in vivo weighing with imaginal exposure. The resource is intended for clinicians seeking methods to leverage real-time emotional activation during weighing to target specific fear mechanisms.
