Huebner, Lois A.; Weitzman, Lauren M.; Mountain, Lisa M.; Nelson, Kris L.; Oakley, Danielle R.; Smith, Michael L.
Journal of College Counseling, v9 n1 p72 Spr 2006
Counseling centers have been challenged to effectively treat the growing number of college students who struggle with disordered eating. In response to this critical issue, an Eating Disorder Assessment and Treatment Protocol (EDATP) was developed to assist clinical disposition in the counseling center setting and identify treatment guidelines within a coordinated care approach. Practical applications of the EDATP and future research that can assess its clinical utility are addressed. This article describes how the University of Utah Counseling Center (UCC) formed an Eating Disorder Assessment and Treatment Team to clarify and improve it's clinical services for eating disordered clients. UCC's EDATP model and set of guidelines for working with clients with disordered eating behaviors are also described in this article. (Contains 1 table.)
