Smartphone Technology and CBT-GSH in Binge Eaters

This study aims to utilize emerging mobile application technology, as a tool for increasing the potency, accessibility, and efficacy of a guided self-help version of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT-GSH) for binge eating. The feasibility and efficacy of the adapted smartphone application created by Noom Inc., Noom Monitor, will be examined through a randomized control trial comparing CBT-GSH + APP with CBT-GSH conducted at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine\'s Eating and Weight Disorders Program. The investigators hypothesize that CBT-GSH with the addition of the Noom Monitor, will be significantly more acceptable, have greater uptake of self-monitoring, greater adherence to treatment, and greater reduction in objective binge episodes (OBEs) than standard CBT-GSH.
