Item Description

An autographed copy of the soon to be released "Take Charge of Your Child's Eating Disorder" (Marlowe & Company), signed by author Pamela Carlton, MD.

Take Charge of Your Child's Eating Disorder is a hands-on, medically based guide that tells parents what they really need to know about eating disorders. As the founder and director of the Adolescent Eating Disorder Parent Education and Support Program at Stanford University, Dr. Pamela Carlton has treated hundreds of children and adolescents with eating disorders and has guided their parents through the maze of eating disorder treatments.

This detailed handbook offers:

  • Warning signs and diagnostic criteria for different types of eating disorders: anorexia, bulimia, and eating disorder not otherwise specified (EDNOS)
  • Information on the "hidden" eating disorder--"Female Athletic Triad"
  • A step-by-step plan for diagnosis, treatment options, and recovery support
  • Detailed advice for putting together and successfully managing a treatment team
  • Specific strategies for handling delicate situations and detailed resources for getting the most up-to-date information
  • The real story about insurance: what's covered, what's not, and how to fight the system.
