English term or phrase: *behavioral* weight reduction program
This is still from the brochure about different mental disorders. This time it is about binge-eating-disorder.

The most common treatment for patients with this disorder is the participation in a *behavioral* weight reduction program.

The exact sentence is: Most people are treated in conventional *behavioral* weight reduction programs.

Could this be translated as *verhaltensgesteuerte* Gewichtsverlustprogramme?

I would be really grateful for suggestions :)
