- Abstract
This paper aims to identify the family and parental factors encounter in clinical practice to teens diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, focusing on therapeutic intervention within the multidisciplinary team consisting of a paediatrician, child psychiatrist and psychologist. Dynamics and patterns of interaction in family proved to be the most important factors involved in the aetiology of eating disorders in adolescence. Numerous studies have confirmed the efficiency of family and systemic therapy in the treatment of anorexia nervosa in adolescents diagnosed with the disorder. Have been described three family typologies encountered in adolescents diagnosed with anorexia, namely: the perfect family with high expectations from parents and a teenager with a strong personality and sense of perfection; the chaotic family, unstable, abusive and the teen with an impulsive and tidy personality; overprotected family, symbiotic, denying the anorexic patient needs, with a hypercritical, eventually anorectic mother. Will be analyzed several clinical cases in that were identified parental and family factors involved in the occurrence of symptoms and the therapeutic intervention lines in terms of family and systemic therapy.
