8 Keys to Recovery from an Eating Disorder was lauded as a "brave
and hopeful book" as well as "remarkably readable". Now, the
authors have returned with a companion workbook-offering all new
assignments, strategies and personal reflections to help those who
suffer from an eating disorder heal their relationship to food and
their bodies. Clients of Costin and Grabb consistently tell them
that knowing they are both recovered is one of the most helpful
aspects of their treatment. With this experience as a foundation,
the authors bring together years of clinical expertise and
invaluable personal testimony, from themselves and others, to the
strategies in this book. Readers will get a glimpse of what it's
like to be in therapy with either Carolyn or Gwen. Filled with
tried and true practical exercises, goal sheets, food journal
forms, clinical anecdotes and stories, readers are guided in
exploring their thoughts, feelings and coping strategies while
being encouraged to choose how they want to approach the material.
This book is an important resource to anyone living with
destructive or self-defeating eating behaviours.
This is no ordinary book on how to overcome an eating disorder. The
authors bravely share their unique stories of suffering from and
eventually overcoming their own severe eating disorders.
Interweaving personal narrative with the perspective of their own
therapist-client relationship, their insights bring an unparalleled
depth of awareness into just what it takes to successfully beat
this challenging and seemingly intractable clinical issue. For
anyone who has suffered, their family and friends, and other
helping professionals, this book should be by your side. With great
compassion and clinical expertise, Costin and Grabb walk readers
through the ins and outs of the recovery process, describing what
therapy entails, clarifying the common associated emotions such as
fear, guilt, and shame, and, most of all, providing motivation to
seek help if you have been discouraged, resistant, or afraid. The
authors bring self-disclosure to a level not yet seen in an eating
disorder book and offer hope to readers that full recovery is
possible.
