Description

The Clinician's Guide to Collaborative Caring in Eating Disorders: The New Maudsley Method by Janet Treasure, Ulrike Schmidt, and Pam Macdonald provides practical guidance for clinicians working with families and carers of individuals with eating disorders. This book offers straightforward advice on how active collaboration between professionals and non-professionals can improve the quality of life for both the individual suffering from an eating disorder and their family members. It also outlines ways to minimise interpersonal elements that can maintain eating disorders, as well as skills and knowledge that can be taught to carers to support personal reactions and provide a supportive environment conducive to change. The book includes a Toolkit for Carers in its appendices, featuring worksheets designed to help carers recognise their unique caring styles. A valuable resource for health professionals working with people with eating disorders, this guide is relevant across various settings and client groups.
