Reviews
"“Having run inpatient and outpatient eating disorder groups for over 45 years, I expected to have several things to contribute to Carolyn Karoll and Adina Silverman's book Eating Disorder Group Therapy: A Collaborative Approach. Reading this book is like taking a superb college course on the topic with a gifted, interesting, and understanding professor. From how to screen applicants, organize a group, facilitate process and content, and deal with innumerable possible problems, these two authors cover everything. They even give the clinician numerous topics to use and how best to present them (materials included)! The detail in this monumental book is fantastic and should prepare a good clinician on best practices for eating disorder group therapy. They even make it look easy. If you ever want to run an eating disorder group, this book is a must. I regularly consult for eating disorder clinicians and treatment programs, and this will be on my recommended reading list.” Carolyn Costin, MA, MEd, LMFT, CEDS, FAED, founder of The Carolyn Costin Institute, author of The Eating Disorder Sourcebook, 8 Keys to Recovery from an Eating Disorder and more “What a treasure trove! This book offers the practical strategies and inspiring guidance you need to lead with confidence! If you're looking to amplify the power of group therapy for folks in eating disorder recovery, consider this manual your trusty GPS.” Rebecca Scritchfield, RDN, Co-Founder of Self-Care for Diabetes virtual support group and Author of Body Kindness “Eating disorders are healed through connection with others and eating disorder professionals know how challenging it can be to create treatment groups that are successful. Karoll and Silverman have created a step-by-step guidebook that lays out all that a clinician needs to know to create successful and meaningful eating disorder groups to facilitate and foster that essential connection.” Anna M. Lutz, MPH, RD, CEDS-C, Lutz, Alexander & Assoc. Nutrition Therapy ""This book strikes a rare balance between offering the ""nuts and bolts"" of group work as well as appreciating the soulfulness and meaning of the enterprise. This book is chock-full of exercises that any therapist can use to further their work. I find that these exercises enhance group work and help the group to be a meaningful vessel for the deep and meaningful work that each individual in the group must undergo in order to find healing. The book appreciates the depth and nuance of group work without losing sight of the realities and practicalities that make this work possible. This book provides an important dialectic between the ""nuts and bolts"" of group work for eating disorders and the ""soul"" of the work itself. In particular, this book is an excellent resource for any therapist who is considering group work as a part of their eating disorders treatment. No eating disorders therapist's shelf is complete without this book."" Dr. Dana Harron, Psy.D, Founder, Monarch Wellness & Psychotherapy"
