Qualitative Evaluation of Change Processes in Multifamily Therapy for Adolescents With Anorexia Nervosa

"Multifamily therapy (MFT), which involves bringing several families together to address the problem of anorexia nervosa, has proved effective for several years now.~Since January 2019, multifamily therapy has been offered to adolescents aged 12 to 18 who are being treated for anorexia nervosa at the Maison de Solenn-Maison des Adolescents at Cochin Hospital, and to their families.~Each group brings together 5 to 7 families and comprises 10 3-hour sessions, with 3 weeks between each session. 2 groups are offered per year. Multifamily therapy therefore involves 10 to 14 families per year. It complements the other approaches available in the department."
