AbstractIn their paper on “Realizing the Untapped Promise of Single‐Session Interventions for Eating Disorders” Schleider and colleagues suggest an innovative approach to addressing a much‐ discussed critical issue in the treatment of eating disorders—how we help more people quickly and with greater efficiency. While building on the feasibility and success of program‐led approaches, they make a potentially transformative proposal for the use of single‐session, “one‐at‐a‐time” interventions freely accessible to those in need. We suggest that not only does this proposal have the potential to narrow the treatment gap, but its ability to generate informative data at scale may also contribute to improving treatment outcomes overall. We also note the need for further independent support for the claim that single sessions produce meaningful benefit especially in the field of the prevention and treatment of eating disorders. While Schleider and colleagues' proposal is potentially transformative and has heuristic value, some caution needs to be exercised. In our view, single‐session interventions should not be regarded as displacing existing treatment provision. Rather they should be seen as complementary and a potential way of improving provision overall.
