  • Title: [Dreams and imaginations in the therapy of eating disordered patients].
    Author: Gáti A, Abrahám I, Arkovits A.
    Journal: Psychiatr Hung; 2009; 24(5):320-7. PubMed ID: 20450141.
    Abstract:
    Recently the integrative approach has been applied in the treatment of eating disorders with multicausal origin. In order to achieve long-term therapeutic effect, the psychodynamic interpretation is often needed and favoured as a part of the personal, multimodal therapeutic strategy. The present paper focuses on body image distortion as one of the most decisive and least influenceable symptom of the disorder. The symptom is interpreted along the body image distortion-body boundaries-self boundaries-autonomy line. With illustrative therapy details of dreams, imaginations, the authors aim to demonstrate the therapeutic use of dynamically oriented therapy and dynamically oriented hypnotherapy.
