Summary

Temperament Based Therapy with Support (TBT-S) is an emerging neurobiologically informed treatment approach designed to augment existing treatments. This book describes how and why TBT-S has been developed for adults with anorexia nervosa (AN), recognizing it has the capacity to be applied to other psychological disorders. TBT-S fills the gap between research and clinical practice by acknowledging and treating underlying brain-based factors. TBT-S recognizes that there is a biological basis to psychological illnesses that involves temperament and altered brain function. It is developed as a modular treatment virtually or face-to-face. The “S” of TBT-S means “Support,” the word chosen by adults clients with AN to describe anyone who offers support. Clinicians can insert TBT-S modules into ongoing therapies ranging from one module in an outpatient treatment settings to a day of TBT-S to the 5-day,40-hour, 1e-week TBT-S program that was studied.
