Description

Food for Thought offers fresh psychoanalytic insights into treating clients with eating disorders. In lively and jargon-free language, Nina Savelle-Rocklin breaks down the psychoanalytic approach to give practitioners and general readers alike a deeper understanding of the theory and effective treatment of eating disorders. Those living with eating disorders often use food to express their inner feelings, and Savelle-Rocklin illustrates the importance of the therapeutic relationship in uncovering the nature of these internal emotions, and formulating them into words. Through an intensive and mutual process, clients can begin to understand the language of the eating disorder, identify and work through its underlying conflicts, ultimately eliminating symptoms, relieving distress, and transforming the way they relate to themselves and others. Thoughtful and highly engaging, Food for Thought provides invaluable methods for practitioners treating patients with eating disorders to achieve lasting change and true healing.

Reviews
Food for Thought provides an insightful, detailed examination of the development and treatment of eating disorders. Savelle-Rocklin, a psychoanalyst specializing in weight, food, and body image issues, offers a new perspective that shines light on the internal dynamics of eating disorders-these dynamics extend beyond one's relationship with food. Built on psychoanalytic research, the book puts forth a scholarly, yet user-friendly, understanding of eating disorders, giving readers rationale for why individuals develop eating disorders and why they deal variably with issues related to food and weight. Through storytelling, the author humanizes the experience of an eating disorder, paring down a complex experience into an aspect that is comprehensible, relatable, and thought-provoking. . . .Eating disorders are a difficult, multifaceted topic to cover, yet Savelle-Rocklin does an exquisite job tackling the issue from all dimensions. Summing Up: Recommended. All readers. * CHOICE *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
