Psychological intervention aims at listening and containing in order to assess objectively the situation the patient is, as well as change his/her life style so that he/she can recover mental and physical health.

Her mother considered necessary that her daughter could express the restrained distress as an aid for medical-nutritional treatment that she were subjected to. Daniela talks about her disorder, her family history, her relationship to dancing and her future plans. The therapeutic process consisted of only three sessions. Through reconstruction of her history, present emotions, thoughts and conflicts are revealed.
