8 Keys to Recovery from an Eating Disorder was lauded as a "brave and hopeful book" as well as "remarkably readable". Now, the authors have returned with a companion workbook-offering all new assignments, strategies and personal reflections to help those who suffer from an eating disorder heal their relationship to food and their bodies.

Clients of Costin and Grabb consistently tell them that knowing they are both recovered is one of the most helpful aspects of their treatment. With this experience as a foundation, the authors bring together years of clinical expertise and invaluable personal testimony, from themselves and others, to the strategies in this book. Readers will get a glimpse of what it's like to be in therapy with either Carolyn or Gwen.

Filled with tried and true practical exercises, goal sheets, food journal forms, clinical anecdotes and stories, readers are guided in exploring their thoughts, feelings and coping strategies while being encouraged to choose how they want to approach the material.

This book is an important resource to anyone living with destructive or self-defeating eating behaviours.
