Description
Summary:G. Terence Wilson meets for an initial session with a male client in his 30s who has, since high school, eaten as a way to comfort himself emotionally. The client reveals that he is often self-critical, suffers from low self-esteem, and feels depressed, and that he binges on food to comfort himself when he is feeling particularly low. Wilson listens and asks questions about the client's behavior, what triggers the behavior, and his emotional and cognitive responses to the eating behavior, then asks him about the positive adaptive techniques the client already has to deal with stress and depression.
