Aim: To identify facilitating and hindering factors in the therapeutic change within the treatment of ED patients. Method: Qualitative-exploratory research, based on Grounded Theory. Purposive sampling and in-depth interviews were carried out in a sample of 20 patients and 8 therapists in Chile and 4 patients and 6 therapists in Argentina. Results: Therapeutic change occurred as a turning point in patients, which they described as a moment when they recognized the need for change. Subsequently, they were able to articulate the change as they experienced it in different areas of functioning. Conclusions: When combining facilitating and hindering aspects and the former overcome the latest, there will be changes that ultimately may be articulated in components of personal identity.
