According to structural family therapy, how does finding ways for the adolescent to express his or her autonomy help with alleviating anorexia nervosa?

What will be an ideal response?


According to structural family therapy, enmeshment of the family contributes to anorexia nervosa because the individual has so little control over aspects of her life other than eating. Providing the adolescent with more appropriate boundaries may let her feel that more aspects of her life are under her control, and therefore reduce the need she has to be so restrictive with her diet.
