Produktbeschreibung

Midlife Eating Disorders and Body Image offers a unique view of potential causes of midlife eating disorders and provides clinicians with practical applications for treatment.

The purpose of this book is to inform and support eating disorder professionals who work with clients in midlife, a phase spanning the late 30s to mid-60s that is predominately overlooked in the eating disorder field. This book emphasizes the intersection of sociocultural demands to meet Western beauty ideals with the shifting roles and expectations of midlife to provide an understanding of the complexity and treatment of midlife eating disorders. Based on the author's experiences as a psychologist, this comprehensive clinical resource will provide numerous case examples of individuals from an array of identities and genders. These cases throughout this book as well as the end-of-chapter reflections will facilitate discussions of real-life applications of the material.

This book is essential reading for practicing clinicians and advanced clinical students in the fields of eating disorders and mental health.
