What's Eating You?: A Workbook for Teens with Anorexia, Bulimia, and other Eating Disorders

by Tammy Nelson

This professional edition includes both the Instant Help book and a companion CD that offers the complete book and printable worksheets for your clients. In a country where a woman over a size four rarely makes it onto the cover of a magazine or onto our TV screens, it's not surprising that eating disorders are so prevalent in girls. Whether it's anorexia, bulimia, or bingeing, eating disorders are destructive and potentially deadly. What's Eating You? helps teens develop the self-esteem and self-acceptance that so often eludes girls with eating disorders. It teaches them how to overcome perfectionism, understand the role that family patterns may play in their eating disorder, and change negative self-talk about their body. As important, What's Eating You? shows teens that happiness comes in many sizes.

Great workbook.

It's simple and easy to understand.
I also use some of the sheets for non-anorexic teens that have low self-esteem or have problems expressing their feelings with their family.
