Eating Disorders and Cognitive Remediation Therapy (CRT)

UNDERWEIGHT? JOIN THE FLEXIBLE THINKING GROUP

We are looking for young people, aged 13 to 21 years, who are diagnosed with anorexia nervosa or who are underweight with eating problems. We are evaluating whether a new type of group therapy “The Flexible Thinking Group” is helpful to people with these problems.

Participation will involve:

  • Attending weekly group therapy sessions for 6 to 8 weeks
  • Completion of two evaluations (one before and one after treatment): paper and pencil, puzzle, and computer 
tasks and some questionnaires
  • Your parent will complete some questionnaires too

Upon completion of the study, you will receive results of the evaluations 
Participation is completely confidential! Participation is completely voluntary and you can withdraw at any time. All data will be de‐ identified.
