This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a group intervention program, based on the Barlow's protocol, in patients with emotional eating with the aim of improving the emotional eating pattern.

The design is quasi-experimental pre-post with a control group (waiting list) and evaluation of the maintenance of the response after 6 months of the end of the program.

Includes outpatients from the Eating Disorders Unit and the Psychiatry Unit of a Hospital. A sample size of 26 participants is considered in the experimental group, and another 26 more in the control group.
