Psychoanalytic Treatment of Eating Disorders: When Words Fail and Bodies Speak is a comprehensive compilation of cutting-edge psychoanalytic approaches to treating eating disorders. By recognizing the multifaceted meanings of food, weight, and body shape, psychoanalytic thinking uniquely positions itself to shed light on the complexities of these often life-threatening conditions. While clinicians have traditionally relied on psychoanalytic ideas in treating eating disorders, many of the unique insights provided by psychoanalysis have been overlooked in contemporary literature.

This volume brings together esteemed clinicians who specialize in the psychoanalytic conceptualization and treatment of eating disorders, as well as addressing contemporary issues such as social media, pro-anorexia forums, and larger cultural factors like advertising, fashion, and even agribusiness. Drawing on recent theoretical developments, several chapters propose innovative models of treatment, while others delve into the intricate interplay between culture and psychology in this patient population.

Psychoanalytic Treatment of Eating Disorders is a valuable resource for all psychoanalysts and psychotherapists working with this complex and multifaceted phenomenon. It offers a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanisms driving eating disorders and provides practical strategies for effective treatment. By exploring the interplay between psyche, culture, and body, this book contributes to the ongoing effort to improve the lives of individuals struggling with these challenging conditions.
