Supporting Autistic People with Eating Disorders: A Guide to Adapting Treatment and Supporting Recovery by Kate Tchanturia. This book explores the complex relationship between autism and eating disorders, drawing on the experiences of practitioners, service users, and carers. Through research findings, case studies, and first-hand accounts, it offers valuable insights into how individuals on the autism spectrum can be supported towards full recovery from an eating disorder. The book provides a multi-disciplinary approach to treatment adaptations, highlighting the unique challenges that arise when autism and eating disorders coexist. It also touches on broader issues of poor mental health outcomes for autistic individuals and explores ways in which these might be improved. With its comprehensive and evidence-based guidance, this book is an essential resource for anyone working with or supporting autistic individuals affected by eating disorders.
