Parents are best placed to help their teenager or young child beat an eating disorder, yet most struggle to know what to do and how to do it.

In Anorexia and Other Eating Disorders, Eva Musby draws on her family's successful use of evidence-based treatment to empower you to support your child through recovery.

- Learn practical and effective mealtime skills- Help your child to eat well and be free of fears and compulsions- Know what to say and what not to say in highly charged situations- Recognise the treatments that work and the ones that don't- Develop your own emotional resources

However difficult your situation, this book gives you the tools you need to care for your child, your family and yourself. Using compassionate presence, Nonviolent Communication, mindfulness and acceptance, Eva Musby plots out a path towards well-being.

With a wealth of guidance and practical examples, Anorexia and Other Eating Disorders is an invaluable guide to coping with and overcoming an eating disorder in the family.

"Finally! I have read anything and everything on anorexia and this is the most helpful by far"

"therapists and other clinicians can learn from this book - not only about some of our own limitations and foibles that so often confuse and baffle the families we hope to help, but also about how we might better help families to understand those dilemmas and develop possible solutions to them."

James Lock, MD, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry and Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine: Director of the Eating Disorder Program in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. Co-author of many books and scientific articles on Family-Based Treatment 


"your book is packed with helpful information for parents and has been brilliant for my patients and for our team. it conveys the right message in an accessible way; that parents are an essential resource and with the right support can find their own strengths to support their child to recover."

Esther Blessitt, Senior Systemic Psychotherapist and co-author of the Maudsley service manual, writing on behalf of the Child and Adolescent Eating Disorders Service at the Maudsley Hospital, London


From parents:


"the most practical advice i've ever come across."


"the information in this book is lifesaving and if you had to gather all this information yourself it would take years. i have bought other books on the subject but i keep returning to this one. when i wake up in the middle of the night worrying i read this and feel reassured and empowered to carry on."


"each time i get a bit down, i read your advice and i'm filled with confidence."


"these are just the practical tips that i need and that i feel a lot of books don't address, as they are so concerned with getting the kids away from death's door, but as we have discovered that is just a first step."
