Reviews

""Finally, those with concurrent chronic illnesses and eating disorders have a validating piece of representation that thoughtfully, authentically, and compassionately evaluates all aspects of this complex relationship. Tamie shares her own beautiful, challenging, real story throughout, as well as others’, while interpreting it through the lens of her extensive clinical experience. The result is a resource that will improve individuals’, loved ones’, and clinicians’ understanding about how best to show up for those who have been mostly invisible to eating disorder and health care systems."" Jennifer L. Gaudiani, MD, CEDS-C, FAED, is the founder and medical director of the Gaudiani Clinic and author of Sick Enough: A Guide to the Medical Complications of Eating Disorders ""Tamie has written a powerful resource for clinicians who work in the field of eating disorders and for anyone who lives with or knows someone who lives with a chronic disability. She gently opens the door for us to discover misperceptions we hold about living with a chronic illness to change how we interact and communicate within personal and professional settings. The reader is invited to explore the impact a chronic disability has on mental health, body image, personal relationships, professional interactions, and co-occurring conditions. Practical guidelines based on evidence-based research and lived experience are abundantly offered."" Tammy Beasley MS RD CEDS-C, National Director of Nutrition Programming, Odyssey Eating Disorder Network ""Tamie delivers an important piece of work for clinicians and clients, offering information and tips for navigating the recovery journey. Tamie covers a wide range of topics, such as weight stigma and how this can impact body image, increasing the risk of developing or perpetuating an eating disorder. Well-researched and informed suggestions are given to clinicians and clients to navigate eating and body image issues as well as several other critical areas such as embodiment, grief, resilience, medical trauma, exercise, and advocacy."" Carolyn Costin, MA, M.ED.MFT 13192 FAED, CEDS, The Carolyn Costin Institute, and author of 8 Keys to Recovery from an Eating Disorder
