Re-Versing the Numbers: A Poetry Workbook for Eating Disorders

Re-Versing the Numbers: A Poetry Workbook for Eating Disorders. Soft-Cover Workbook Edition. Eating disorders are real, complex, and devastating conditions that can have serious consequences for health, productivity, and relationships… They are serious, potentially life-threatening conditions that affect a person’s emotional and physical health… The earlier a person with an eating disorder seeks treatment, the greater the likelihood of physical and emotional recovery.” — The National Eating Disorders Association

“As a psychotherapist, I often see clients with eating disorders who have been through non-helpful behavioral programs. Behaviorism is only part of the answer. Even cognitive change is affected by feelings, and if those feelings remain hidden, then little can be changed. “Therapists are constantly asking me for user-friendly materials which use the arts. The topics covered in this book are cognitive/behavioral in theory, but are approached from the holistic, artistic side. This book is designed to be used on only be individual readers, but also by mental health professionals.” — From the Introduction to Re-Versing the Numbers
