Family-based treatment
FBT is carried out by a family therapist who has received FBT training. The duration of FBT is commonly 6-12 months, in most cases comprising 10-20 sessions. At the beginning of treatment, there are weekly sessions; later in treatment, the sessions are less frequent. The patient and their family meet their psychiatrist every four to six weeks, and the family therapist also takes part in these meetings. The treatment is implemented in accordance with the FBT treatment manual.
