Category: For Clinicians | Series: Treatments That Work Ser.

The Overcoming Eating Disorders, Second Edition program addresses the cognitive-behavioral treatment of Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating Disorder. CBT has been proven the most effective treatment for helping patients improve their eating habits and overcome their disorder. The treatment described is div ided into three overlapping phases: behavior change, identifying binge triggers, and relapse prevention. The main focus of the program is the normalization of eating. Patients use self-monitoring forms to track their eating habits on a daily basis while they work toward establishing a pattern of 3 meals and 2 snacks per day eaten at regular intervals. Once a regular pattern of eating has been established, patients move on to recognizing and eliminating their triggers for binging and purging. CBT techniques like problem-solving and cognitive restructuring help patients deal with negative mood states, faulty interpersonal interactions, and errors in thinking. The final phase of treatment consists of a review of the positive changes that have occurred during treatment, as well as a discussion of any residual problems and ways to handle setbacks or lapses. ...Show more

Eating Disorders: A Guide to Medical Care and Complications (2nd edition) by Philip S. Mehler and Arnold E. Andersen

$73.00 NZD

Available Stock:

Category: For Clinicians

Eating disorders present diagnostic and treatment challenges to clinicians. While such disorders need both medical and psychological treatment, patients may be too medically ill for a thorough psychiatric evaluation and may be misunderstood by many primary care physicians. In this revised and update d edition of Eating Disorders, Philip S. Mehler and Arnold E. Andersen provide a hands-on, user-friendly, and comprehensive guide for both primary care doctors and mental health professionals. Mehler and Andersen identify common medical complications that patients with eating disorders face and answer questions about how to treat them. They also cover such serious complications as osteoporosis, cardiac arrhythmia, electrolyte abnormalities, immune compromise, and gastrointestinal sequelae. Incorporating pertinent case studies, medical background on the complication, suggestions for diagnosis and treatment, and a list of selected references, chapters cover important topics, including team treatment and nutritional rehabilitation. The authors address special areas of concern, such as athletes who have eating disorders and the pharmacologic treatment of obesity. ...Show more

Feeding Anorexia: Gender and Power at a Treatment Center by Helen Gremillion

$40.00 NZD

Available Stock:

Category: For Clinicians

Feeding Anorexia challenges prevailing assumptions regarding the notorious difficulty of curing anorexia nervosa. Through a vivid chronicle of treatments at a state-of-the-art hospital program, Helen Gremillion reveals how the therapies participate unwittingly in culturally dominant ideals of gender , individualism, physical fitness, and family life that have contributed to the dramatic increase in the incidence of anorexia since the 1970s. She describes how strategies including the meticulous measurement of patients' progress in terms of body weight and calories consumed ultimately feed the problem, not only reinforcing ideas about the regulation of women's bodies, but also fostering in many girls and women greater expertise in the formidable constellation of skills anorexia requires. At the same time, Gremillion shows how contradictions and struggles in treatment can help open up spaces for change. Feeding Anorexia is based on fourteen months of ethnographic research in a small inpatient unit located in a major teaching and research hospital. Gremillion attended group, family, and individual therapy sessions and medical staff meetings; ate meals with patients; and took part in outings and recreational activities. She also conducted over one hundred interviews-with patients, parents, staff, and clinicians. Among the issues she explores are the relationship between calorie-counting and the management of consumer desire; why the "typical" anorexic patient is middle-class and white; the extent to which power differentials among clinicians, staff, and patients model "anorexic families;" and the potential of narrative therapy to constructively reframe some of the problematic assumptions underlying more mainstream treatments. ...Show more

Beyond Shadow of A Diet by Matz

Category: For Clinicians

As we come to understand that it is a combination of genetic, cultural, and behavioral factors that influence both the body shape and body image of an individual, we also see that not all therapists are well equipped to deal with the multitude of issues that can arise when self-esteem intersects with he alth and social expectations. Beyond a Shadow of a Diet is the first comprehensive look at the dynamics and treatment of compulsive eating within the context of both extrinsic and internal expectations of body image. This book synthesizes a theoretical framework with case studies, research, and practical strategies in order to provide the therapist with a new paradigm for the effective treatment of compulsive eating. The authors provide the reader with the necessary tools, while encouraging the practitioners themselves to reexamine their own assumptions regarding body size and food. This uniquely powerful book presents a method of solving, rather than controlling, compulsive eating, enabling both therapist and client to become more fully aware of our complex relationships with food, our bodies, ourselves, and each other. ...Show more
