The Renfrew Unified Treatment for Eating Disorders and Co-occurring Emotional Disorders (UT) is an integrative, transdiagnostic, principle-based approach to address patterns of emotion avoidance, emotion sensitivity, and negative affect that produce and maintain the symptoms of eating disorders and co-occurring emotional disorders. The UT model was developed through an extensive process of adapting the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders (UP) for use with patients with severe and diverse eating disorders. The modules of the UT are distinct from other approaches due to their cohesive (internal and collective) focus on how each module addresses these shared maintaining mechanisms. There is extensive evidence that eating disorders typically co-occur with other emotional disorders. There is also extensive evidence that eating disorders and other emotional disorders share common maintaining mechanisms, reflecting aspects of emotional functioning. |
