Supplemental telephone coaching was also offered.MethodNineteen interview transcripts were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA).Results(1) The transfer of specialist skills was highly valued in lessening carer stress and care‐giving difficulties and, in some instances, appeared to have a positive effect on both carer and sufferer, (2) caregivers provided useful suggestions for building upon the current intervention, (3) future programmes would benefit from stronger fidelity to the principles of motivational interviewing, stricter monitoring of coaches and increased participation in male carers.ConclusionThis study has confirmed that skills‐training can be beneficial in increasing carer self‐efficacy and reducing psychological distress, anxiety and burden. They can be a cost‐effective method of supporting carers who might otherwise struggle to find therapeutic family support. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and Eating Disorders Association.
