The Parent’s Guide to Eating Disorders
This is the first book to address the eating problems of children and adolescents from the practical point of view of a nutritionist. It is designed primarily for parents or caregivers who are concerned about the eating patterns of their child. It is you who are the first to become aware of an emerging problem, and it is you who spend the most time with your child, preparing meals, trying to get her to eat, worrying about your child’s health.
You’ll find help with:
- Avoiding a relapse
- Spotting early warning signs
- Normalizing eating and exercise
- Knowing when to seek professional help
- Dealing with school, friends, sports, and camp
- Establishing healthy attitudes toward food at a young age
Nutrition Counseling in the Treatment of Eating Disorders, 2nd edition
Marcia Herrin and Maria Larkin have collaborated on the second edition of Nutrition Counseling in the Treatment of Eating Disorders, infusing research-based approaches and their own clinically-refined tools for managing food and weight-related issues. New to this edition is a section on nutrition counseling interventions derived from cognitive behavioral therapy-enhanced, dialectical behavioral therapy, family-based treatment, and motivational interviewing techniques. Readers will appreciate the state of the art nutrition and weight assessment guidelines, the practical clinical techniques for managing bingeing, purging, excessive exercise, and weight restoration as well as the unique food planning approach developed by the authors. As a comprehensive overview of food and weight-related treatments, this book is an indispensible resource for nutrition counselors, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, physicians, and primary care providers.
