Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take

Mindfulness and Acceptance for Treating Eating Disorders and Weight Concerns

Ann F. Haynos · 2016
80/100
👍 Worth It

This is a genuinely useful clinical reference that fills a real gap — no comparable volume had systematically pulled ACT, DBT, and MBCT together for eating disorder treatment before this one. It earns its place on a clinician's shelf precisely because it is rigorous, organized, and evidence-grounded. Just be clear-eyed that this is a professional training text, not a recovery workbook.
