Although our understanding of the mechanisms of change in eating disorder treatment remain limited, the empiric evidence for the effectiveness of family therapy for adolescent Anorexia Nervosa is gaining strength. A history of family involvement in psychiatric care, current approaches to family intervention in eating disorders and evidence for their efficacy are reviewed.
