Reviews

"""As an eating disorders parent advocate, what I loved most about this well-written book is the inclusion of a chapter about involving family members and other caregivers as supports in exposure therapy. All too often, caregivers are underutilized in treatment and not recognized for their potential to contribute toward recovery. This book offers parents and caregivers clear guidance on how to best help their loved one eat without fear. I would definitely recommend it to parents of people affected by an eating disorder; it is easy to read, full of valuable information, and extremely enlightening. -- Judy Krasna, Parent Advocate, Former co-chair of the AED's Experts by Experience Committee ""This book is a treasure. A compendium of cutting-edge evidence-based techniques, written by field-leading experts, made accessible and easy to understand in everyday language. This book is one that you're likely to read and re-read, and have separate ""ah-ha"" moments each time you read it. Simply put, this is a must for anyone helping someone work through an eating disorder."" -- Stuart B. Murray, DClinPsych., Ph.D., Della Martin Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Director, Eating Disorders Program, Director, Translational Research in Eating Disorders Laboratory, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, USC Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California ""It's easy for someone to tell you to face your fears. But showing you exactly how to do it? That's life-changing! Eat Without Fear is one-of-a-kind guide to using exposure therapy to finally break free from the anxiety that holds you back from full recovery. I plan to recommend it to all of my patients and families."" -- Jennifer J. Thomas, PhD, Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, and Co-Director, Eating Disorders Clinical and Research Program, Massachusetts General Hospital"
