Book Description
This is an amazing healing workbook to help children who have a loved one working towards Eating Disorder Recovery! Emily's Guide is a workbook for boys and girls ages 5-11. This workbook is created by Sherri Hicks, LMSW who has treated Eating Disorder patients at a nationally ranked Eating Disorder Treatment Center in Arizona and Stacey Lyddon who has served as a Peer Support Specialist and Artist. When a loved one has an Eating Disorder it effects the entire family and often young children have thoughts and emotions that need to be expressed. Emily's Guide encourages self-expression for children who witness confusing Eating Disorder behaviors. Being honest and answering a child's questions about Eating Disorders is extremely important to helping them to be resilient against their own Eating Disorder. The artwork is simple yet impactful when talking about something as abstract as "ED" (Eating Disorders) for children and lets them express themselves through art and writing. This book is positive and uplifting helping to build self-esteem and understanding that recovery is difficult but possible. Editorial Reviews: In praise of: Emily's Guide to Eating Disorders Eating Disorders continue to be among the most misunderstood diseases on earth. All too often fatal, these disorders rob men, women and children of their health, their dignity and their purpose. Eating Disorders also have a sinister impact on families, leaving parents, siblings, children and others in a quandary as to how to best support a suffering loved one. In this book, Sherri Hicks and Stacey Lyddon use their vast clinical and artistic skills to bring a story of love, care and concern for someone caught in the throes of an Eating Disorder to children in ways that make understanding something as truly awful as Anorexia to Bulimia possible. If you know a child (of any age) who is facing this dilemma, Emily's Guide to Eating Disorders is a must read. Jerry L. Law, D. Min., MDAAC, CIP is a veteran of 25 years in the corporate world, and his strong leadership and organizational skills lend themselves naturally to the intervention process. Dr. Law is a Board Certified Professional Christian Counselor, a Board Certified Intervention Professional and a Master Certified Drug Alcohol and Addictions Counselor. Jerry brings compassion and a first-hand understanding about how critical it is to break the cycle of addiction in the professional world as well as within the family. In the upheaval that follows an eating disorder diagnosis, young children and siblings are the walking wounded, unsure where to turn with their questions and emotions. With simple explanations and space for words and drawings, Emily's Guide to Eating Disorders offers a safe place for a child to express the experience of living with a loved one with an eating disorder. Highly recommend. - Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CEDRD Eating Disorder Expert and Author of The Eating Disorders Clinical Pocket Guide

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Eating Disorders
Author: Emily Sandoz
Publisher: New Harbinger Publications
ISBN: 1572247347
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
A Process-Focused Guide to Treating Eating Disorders with ACT At some point in clinical practice, most therapists will encounter a client suffering with an eating disorder, but many are uncertain of how to treat these issues. Because eating disorders are rooted in secrecy and reinforced by our culture's dangerous obsession with thinness, sufferers are likely to experience significant health complications before they receive the help they need. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Eating Disorders presents a thorough conceptual foundation along with a complete protocol therapists can use to target the rigidity and perfectionism at the core of most eating disorders. Using this protocol, therapists can help clients overcome anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and other types of disordered eating. This professional guide offers a review of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) as a theoretical orientation and presents case conceptualizations that illuminate the ACT process. Then, it provides session-by-session guidance for training and tracking present-moment focus, cognitive defusion, experiential acceptance, transcendent self-awareness, chosen values, and committed action-the six behavioral components that underlie ACT and allow clients to radically change their relationship to food and to their bodies. Both clinicians who already use ACT in their practices and those who have no prior familiarity with this revolutionary approach will find this resource essential to the effective assessment and treatment of all types of eating disorders.

The Parent's Guide to Eating Disorders
Author: Marcia Herrin
Publisher: Gurze Books
ISBN: 0936077573
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
The Parent's Guide to Eating Disorders shows that effective solutions begin at home and cost little more than a healthy investment of time, effort, and love. Based on exciting new research, it differs from similar books in several key ways. Instead of concentrating on the grim, expensive hospital stays of patients with severe disorders, the authors focus on the family, teaching parents how to examine and understand their family’s approach to food and body-image issues and its effect their child’s behavior. Parents learn to identify an eating disorder early, to establish healthy attitudes toward food at a young age, and to intervene in a nonthreatening, nonjudgmental way. The authors concentrate on teens, the age group most often affected by eating disorders, as well as younger children. Individual chapters cover boys at risk, relapse training, dealing with friends, school, and summer camp, and much more. The book includes an appendix and sections on further reading, organizations and websites, residential and hospital programs, and references.

Consciousness
Author: Susan Blackmore
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317625862
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 838
Book Description
Is there a theory that explains the essence of consciousness? Or is consciousness itself an illusion? Am I conscious now? Now considered the 'last great mystery of science', consciousness was once viewed with extreme scepticism and rejected by mainstream scientists. It is now a significant area of research, albeit a contentious one, as well as a rapidly expanding area of study for students of psychology, philosophy, and neuroscience. This edition of Consciousness, revised by author team Susan Blackmore and Emily Troscianko, explores the key theories and evidence in consciousness studies ranging from neuroscience and psychology to quantum theories and philosophy. It examines why the term ‘consciousness’ has no recognised definition and provides an opportunity to delve into personal intuitions about the self, mind, and consciousness. Featuring comprehensive coverage of all core topics in the field, this edition includes: Why the problem of consciousness is so hard Neuroscience and the neural correlates of consciousness Why we might be mistaken about our own minds The apparent difference between conscious and unconscious Theories of attention, free will, and self and other The evolution of consciousness in animals and machines Altered states from meditation to drugs and dreaming Complete with key concept boxes, profiles of well-known thinkers, and questions and activities suitable for both independent study and group work, Consciousness provides a complete introduction to this fascinating field.
