Book SynopsisCaring for a Loved One with an Eating Disorder: The New Maudsley Skills-Based Training Manual provides a framework for carer skills workshops which can be used by anyone working with these conditions. Based on the successful New Maudsley Model, which equips carers with the knowledge and skills needed to support those with an eating disorder, the book consists of two sections which will help facilitators to deliver skills workshops to carers. The first section provides the theoretical background, while the second uses exercises to bring the New Maudsley Model to life. The skills workshops provide a much-needed lifeline, giving carers an opportunity to meet in a safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment, and to learn to recognise that changes in their own responses can be highly beneficial. With session-by-session guidelines and handouts for participants, Caring for a Loved One with an Eating Disorder: The New Maudsley Skills-Based Training Manual will be of aid to anyone working with someone coping with these conditions. Trade Review"Caring for someone with an eating disorder is, without a doubt, a critical part in support of the recovery of the sufferer. Therefore, guiding and taking care of the carer have taken front-row seats in this process. The authors are leading authorities in this domain and Caring for a Loved One with an Eating Disorder, based on their The New Maudsley Model, is a very helpful session-by-session guide to participants and facilitators of skills workshops in order to train, equip, and support carers in their difficult task. This book is not only an outstanding go-to guide for carers and those who support carers, but it also will provide much-needed information to all clinicians who wish to better understand and support families and friends who are taking care of a loved one with an eating disorder." - Daniel Le Grange, Ph.D., FAED, Benioff UCSF Professor in Children's Health, Director, Eating Disorders Program, Department of Psychiatry and UCSF Weill Institute for Neurosciences, University of California, San Francisco, Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, The University of Chicago, Chicago, IL."Recognition of the importance of bringing carers and loved ones into treatment and attending to the burden on close family members has transformed the care of people with eating disorders across the age range and across the stages of the illness. This manual, born of years of personal and clinical experience of working with adults with eating disorders and substantiated by research, is an accessible guide for facilitators keen to put this knowledge into action through support of parents and carers based on the highly acclaimed Skills Based Caring for a Loved one with an Eating Disorder (The New Maudsley Method). Bursting with practical and creative ideas, peppered with top tips to help negotiate the challenging emotional nature of the work, and all underpinned by theory and research evidence in an easy to understand form, it provides a step by step yet flexible guide and toolkit for practitioners in delivering skills workshops for carers." - Dr Dasha Nicholls, Reader in Child Psychiatry, Imperial College London Chair, Eating Disorders Faculty, Royal College of Psychiatrists"The New Maudsley Model of sharing skills with carers has the potential to transform services and improve clinical outcomes. Building on the self help book, this is a brilliantly concise guide to delivering carer skills workshops, with session by session facilitator crib sheets, exercises and worksheets. More than anything, it’s the collaborative, empathic & non-judgemental style of delivery and interaction that matters - and it is this style that is described and attended to invaluably throughout the book. Helpful to all of us in our day to day work with carers." - Dr Frances Connan, PhD, Consultant Psychiatrist and Clinical Director for Vincent Square Eating Disorder Service"This ground-breaking book fills an important gap by providing a step by step guide for initiating and facilitating a skills workshop for caregivers of people of all ages living with eating disorders. With compassion, warmth, straightforward & non-blaming language, this must-read book provides both professional and non-professional carers with theories, practical strategies and hands on exercises to enhance communication and promote relational change. It brings hope about the possibility of transformation for all affected by eating disorders."- Gina Dimitropoulos, MSW, PhD, RSW, RMFT, social worker, family therapist and professional carer, University of Calgary"This is a book that the field has desperately needed—a clear yet comprehensive guide to navigating an area too often relegated to being overwhelming in its complexity. With the key element of empowering carers, championed by Langley and her co-authors, it provides a set of tools that professionals, carers, and sufferers may all use to steer and enhance recovery—concrete steps and worksheet-guided exercises, backed by research and theory, and delivered with understanding and compassion. Highly recommended." - Dr Joanne Dolhanty, PhD, CPsych, Developer of Emotion Focused Skills Training for Parents & Families."The New Maudsley Skills-Based Training Manual is THE game changer for carers, clinicians and multi-family group leaders. The modules truly bring The New Maudsley Approach to life and I can’t wait for our team to try out all the new exercises in our multi-family program." - Roxanne Rockwell, PhD. Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Assistant Clinical Professor and Director of Adolescent Eating Disorder Services at the University of California, San Diego.

Through the contents of each chapter of the book, carers will be able to acquire theoretical and practical abilities from a unique approach that includes skills from the transtheoretical model of change, motivational enhancement therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and emotional processing techniques to help their loved one to be able to overcome this illness and deal with the setbacks.

"We have successfully used and tested the "New Maudsley Model" in a German-speaking Austrian population with anorexia nervosa including the Succeed DVD. This new manual will extremely foster a quick dissemination of this successful treatment model to all supporting carers in need, giving them step-by-step advice how to care best. Warmly recommended!" - Prof Andreas Karwautz, MD, Vienna, Austria"When faced with the often frightening and daunting task of caring for a loved one with an eating disorder, there is no better resource than this which explains how to help others to do so in such a clear and thoughtful way. The authors outline how to set up workshops which share information and professional skills with carers, provide practical solutions to challenges based on their extensive experience of delivering these workshops and offer a thorough template for a series of workshops which have in the past received excellent feedback from carers in attendance.

Book SynopsisIt should not surprise us that so many are finding unique value in the experiential techniques. The fact that eating-disordered patients adopt physical and often complex metaphoric means of expressing their emotional pain suggests the difficulty we are likely to encounter in asking them to articulate the inarticulable. In moving to spatial, kinesthetic, and symbolic expression, we are, in a sense, agreeing to speak the patient's language rather than our own.Given the very nature of eating disorders, many clinicians are finding that experiential methods are particularly applicable for treating patients who suffer from them. Providing a valuable new tool for practitioners, EXPERIENTIAL THERAPIES FOR EATING DISORDERS is the first text to focus solely on the application of expressive therapies and experiential techniques to the treatment of anorexia nervosa and bulimia.Each chapter of this innovative work systematically reviews a single experiential treatment approach. ATrade ReviewProvides practitioners with a wealth of ideas on how to work with eating-disordered patients by doing, rather than by just talking. - Contemporary PsychologyTable of Contents1.

Book SynopsisAn extraordinary, powerful connection exists between feeling and feeding that, if damaged, may lead to one relying on food for emotional support, rather than seeking authentic happiness. This unique workbook takes on the seven emotions that plague problem eaters — guilt, shame, helplessness, anxiety, disappointment, confusion, and loneliness — and shows readers how to embrace and learn from their feelings. Written with honesty and humor, the book explains how to identify and label a specific emotion, the function of that emotion, and why the emotion drives food and eating problems. Each chapter has two sets of exercises: experiential exercises that relate to emotions and eating, and questionnaires that provoke thinking about and understanding feelings and their purpose. Supplemental pages help readers identify emotions and chart emotional development. The final part of the workbook focuses on strategies for disconnecting feeling from food, discovering emotional triggers, and using one’s feelings to get what one wants out of life.

Book SynopsisThis practical, accessible book teaches readers how to practice healthy body image habits and let go of an emphasis on body image through research, activities, and personal stories.Body neutrality is a body image approach focused on finding acceptance and liberation from the body-focused culture in which we live. Body neutrality is a shift toward seeing our bodies as a vessel of who we are rather than as who we are. This guide is organized into thirteen chapters, each outlining a different concept of body neutrality ranging from comparison and identity to mindfulness and gratitude, inviting participation from the reader through end-of-chapter activities. For anyone aiming to release the enslaving emphasis placed on appearance in a world where body obsession has become inappropriately normal, this book will provide insight and practical guidance toward freedom.Body Neutrality is for anyone struggling with self-esteem and body image issues who aimsTable of Contents1.

Book SynopsisThis book presents a Lacanian perspective on the understanding and treatment of anorexia, supported by case material, research and theoretical insight from the author's 25 years of clinical practice. Domenico Cosenza explains how anorexia constitutes a challenge for contemporary psychoanalytic clinicians, assesses previous theoretical understandings and examines clinical contributions from other schools of psychoanalysis. Cosenza argues that anorexia cannot be treated by following a classical psychoanalytic path, and here draws on numerous clinical cases to articulate a Lacanian approach which addresses core concerns not resolved elsewhere. Elaborating on Lacanian concepts including refusal and the object nothing, Cosenza offers a new approach for all psychoanalytically-informed clinicians working with anorexia. A Lacanian Reading of Anorexia will be of great interest to psychoanalysts, psychiatrists, clinical psychologists and psychotherapists intTrade Review"In this highly significant book Domenico Cosenza shows us refusal may be torned into a way forward. Through his remarkable insights, he shows us how it is paradoxically in the impasse that it presents that a solution to anorexia may be found."Prof. François Ansermet, psychoanalyst, member of the WAP, Emeritus Professor of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the Universities of Geneva and Loussanne."Domenico Cosenza incisively surveys the full spectrum of literature of anorexia - psychiatry, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, Lacan, and the contemporary Lacanian Orientation and draws on his own clinical experience in many settings, and those of colleagues, to provide the clinician a much-needed framework for working with patientswith anorexia. That alone makes this book a must-buy, but Cosenza also highlights how the study of anorexia, alongside other eating disorders and addiction, is necessary in reforging a clinic for today’s civilisation." Thomas Svolos, MD, New Lacanian School and Creighton University School of Medicine."A Lacanian Reading of Anorexia is one of the finest contemporary contributions by a psychoanalyst to the theoretical understanding and treatment of anorexia nervosa. The analysis of rejection, the core symptom of this life-threatening psychosomatic disorder, is enlightening for psychodynamically oriented psychotherapists and those who follow other theoretical-clinical approaches."Massimo Cuzzolaro, formerly Sapienza University of Rome; Past President, SISDCA; Founding Editor-in-Chief of Eating and Weight Disorders. Studies on Anorexia, Bulimia, and Obesity."You find in your hands, a rare and exceptional book. Domenico Cosenza has given as a veritable treasure; a distillation on the best psychoanalytic thinking on anorexia. Based on years of intensive work with anorexic patients both in Italian community-based institutions and private practice, and firmly grounded in the work of Jacques Lacan, Cosenza’s book brings a well-organized account of theory and clinical articulation to English-speaking audiences. A landmark tour de force by a highly regarded analyst that firmly establishes a Lacanian perspective on this crucial clinical issue, setting the tone for any future work on anorexia."Fernando Castrillón, personal and supervising psychoanalyst, editor-in-chief the European Journal of Psychoanalysis"Cosenza addresses eating disorders without getting stuck in Lacanian jargon for initiated ones, in a way that is both fresh but at the same time rigorous. An excellent clinical approach, which always involves theoretical interrogations."Sergio Benvenuto, psychoanalyst, founder of the European Journal of Psychoanalysis"Domenico Cosenza’s book will be helpful to clinicians for treating 'the psychological wall' that anorexic patients build, brick by brick, to detach themselves from the Other. In according to a Lacanian perspective, Cosenza emphasizes a clinical work focused on the role of 'the word' in order to develop in these patients their 'desire' to go beyond the wall of anorexia.

The volume starts with a presentation the most current facts on eating disorders. Part 2 then provides young with eating disorders a complete descriptionaccompanied by clinical examples and helpful vignettes on how to implement the main CBT-E procedures. While this book is specifically tailored Trade Review‘This guide will be an invaluable resource for any young person receiving enhanced cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT-E) for eating disorders or considering this treatment. This guide intends to empower and equip a young person on their journey to recovery using a CBT-E approach. The book describes how eating problems develop and are maintained, and consequently how they can be successfully addressed. Taking part in CBT-E can be an effortful process, although the more effort a young person is able to put into therapy the more they are likely to benefit from it. This guide will help a young person to navigate this therapy and aid with challenges they might face along the way. It is also likely to be helpful for clinicians using CBT-E with young people, given its accessibility and deliberate efforts to translate any "jargon" into everyday terms.’Rebecca Murphy, PhD, The Centre for Research on Eating Disorders at Oxford (CREDO), Department of Psychiatry, University of Oxford (UK)‘Most eating disorder books are geared toward adults or parents—this is one of the first to be uniquely tailored for young people themselves. Brimming with relatable real-life examples, QR codes that link to helpful worksheets, and user-friendly descriptions of cutting-edge research, A Young Person’s Guide to Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Eating Disorders puts the patient in the driver’s seat, encouraging them to play an active role in their own recovery.

Thomas, PhD, FAED, Co-Director, Eating Disorders Clinical and Research Program, Massachusetts General Hospital, Associate Professor of Psychology, Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, President, Academy for Eating Disorders‘This book for young people receiving CBT-E for an eating disorder is an incredibly valuable and engaging resource. It comes longside the young person and has the potential to "turbo charge" therapy by involving them as a fully informed and respected partner in the therapy.’ Tracey Wade, Matthew Flinders Distinguished Professor of Psychology, Flinders Institute for Mental Health and Wellbeing, Flinders University Services for Eating Disorder (Australia)‘Clinical experience in the complex field of eating disorders has a priceless value: "A Young Person’s Guide to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Eating Disorders" makes available to young patients and their therapists a multi-year experience and all the knowledge of the authors about the use of this evidence-based therapy with the aim of empowering young people suffering from an eating disorder to fully benefit of this technique.’Angela Favaro, Full Professor of Psychiatry – Department of Neuroscience, Padua University (Italy)Table of ContentsPart 1: Understanding Eating Disorders 1.

So you’ve got the expert view, which is so informative - and really important to helping with early detection - but you’re also hearing from people with lived experience of eating disorders, their family and carers, reinforcing the message that recovery is always possible.”Stacey Dooley, author of ‘Are You Really OK?: Understanding Britain’s Mental Health Crisis’, UK.“This book is an excellent combination of professional and lived experience voices resulting in a comprehensive and easily digestedoutline of Eating Disorders; an illness that is seldom well understood but which people do recover from, when treated. The authors eloquently explain important topics such as assessments, treatment, medical emergencies and the diversity of how eating disorders can affect anyone of any age.

Book SynopsisThe book illustrates how parents who are participating in family-based treatment (FBT) for their child's eating disorder (ED) may enhance their chances of achieving optimal outcomes for their child by more successfully navigating the challenges that often impede progress in treatment and recovery.The stance of the book is transdiagnostic, so that the information provided spans all ED diagnoses including anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), binge eating disorder (BED), avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), and atypical ED presentations as well as conditions that fall outside current diagnostic criteria. This book aims to help parents identify how they can make the most out of FBT therapy no matter which ED symptoms their child experiences. Case vignettes across the diagnostic and clinical spectrum are used liberally throughout the book, not only to illustrate examples of some of the specific challenges families face, but to help parents normalize the emotions they may feel around their experience of trying to help their child and around their experience of participating in the FBT intervention itself. A respectful and supportive tone makes this resource accessible and jargon-free for parents, and provides useful information and approaches for psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and allied health practitioners who deliver FBT to young people and families.Trade Review"This is the book I've been waiting for—the definitive guide to implementing family-based treatment (FBT) at home, by the top experts in the field! Whether your child has anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, or avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder, this book will be your lifeline. Making Family-Based Treatment For Eating Disorders Piece by Piece picks up where weekly therapy sessions end and real life begins, with genuine validation, practical advice, realistic case examples, and beautiful hand-drawn illustrations. I will be recommending it to all of my FBT families."Jennifer J. Thomas, PhD, co-director, Eating Disorders Clinical and Research Program, Massachusetts General Hospital; associate professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School; immediate past president, Academiy for Eating Disorders"Every parent undergoing FBT will want to read this book. It covers the most challenging scenarios illustrated by real examples from families including how to separate the illness from your child, how to stay aligned with your refeeding partner, and how to handle big emotions such as self-harm and suicidal thoughts. Examples are provided for all types of eating disorders. This comprehensive resource is a valuable follow up to 'Help Your Teenager Beat an Eating Disorder', and provides more in-depth solutions to some of the most common pitfalls encountered during FBT. Clinicians who provide FBT will also find this book extremely helpful." Jennifer Couturier, MD, MSc, FRCPC, medical co-director Eating Disorders Program, McMaster Children's Hospital; associate professor, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada "Family-Based Treatment (FBT) is the best available, quickest acting intervention for eating disorders in adolescents. Whilst FBT may not work for everyone, an effective 'dose' of FBT as soon as possible after diagnosis confers the best prognosis. This book, based on over 20 years of clinical research experience of delivering and studying FBT, addresses the doubts, anxieties and challenges parents commonly experience when implementing FBT. Written by experts, full of empathy and understanding, and underpinned by science, this book is a 'call to arms' for parents and clinicians about why trying and persisting with FBT is the best first line strategy in combatting these potentially devastating disorders. Real world examples, in the form of brief vignettes, illustrate each of the topics across the full range of eating disorder diagnoses: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder and avoidant restrictive food intake disorder. I recommend this book as essential reading for all parents of adolescents newly diagnosed with an eating disorder."

Professor Cynthia Bulik, PhD, FAED, Distinguished Professor of Eating Disorders, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Professor, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden It gives me great pleasure to provide this endorsement of the MANTRA workbook. Working with people who are simultaneously embracing and battling anorexia nervosa is one of the hardest types of therapy I have encountered in thirty years of practice as a clinical psychologist across a number of clinical settings and conditions. When I first came across the emerging MANTRA approach in 2003, it was like a breath of fresh and invigorating air. It provided a validating and respectful approach, utilized the principles of motivational interviewing in the way material was presented, contained clear connections between the evidence and inclusion of a range of modules, and was associated with creative and engaging exercises that allowed for inclusion of collaborative work with a therapist. Many years have now passed, and a body of solid evidence for the usefulness of MANTRA with anorexia nervosa has accumulated, such that it is now one of three recommended adult outpatient treatments in the 2017 NICE guidelines. This published workbook now gives people with lived experience of anorexia nervosa and therapists alike easy access to MANTRA by providing: Logically sequenced creative and self-reflective exercises that encourage the person with anorexia nervosa to develop an observer’s point of view and see the bigger picture, thus freeing them up to make different choices about how they respond to the anorexia nervosa; Clear advice and tips based on best-practice and informed by emerging research; Illustrative examples from people’s experiences with feeling confused by, and overwhelmed with, anorexia nervosa, and making inroads against this destructive disease. It is certainly my clinical experience with this workbook that people with anorexia nervosa find it engaging, challenging, and promoting self-efficacy and optimism for a future that involves a healthier and richer life that has expanded well beyond the confines of control over food and weight. It should certainly be on every clinician’s shelf if they working with this group of people.
