An Internal Family Systems Guide to Recovery from Eating Disorders

Healing Part by Part

By: Amy Yandel Grabowski

Narrated by: Natasha Soudek

Drawing on the evidence-based Internal Family System (IFS) therapy model, An Internal Family Systems Guide to Recovery from Eating Disorders: Healing Part by Part addresses the necessity of healing the eating disorder sufferer's three groups of inner "Parts": the Mentors, the Advocates, and the Kids. In order to reconnect to their sense of Self and to achieve an inner balance necessary for recovery, the listener learns to address the unique needs of each of their "Parts." 

Written in an accessible style, this book combines compassionate examples from the author's client cases and her own recovery with a step-by-step framework for identifying and healing the listeners' Parts using the IFS model. Each chapter ends with questions for the listener to answer to further enhance their personal recovery. An Internal Family Systems Guide to Recovery from Eating Disorders: Healing Part by Part will be essential to mental health professionals treating clients with eating disorders and to the clients themselves.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Narrator sounds condescending; unlistenable.

… and she reads regular prose as if it’s conversation and it’s so incredibly annoying. I don’t need the narrator to sound as if they are pretending to be the author thinking of every word before they write it down. Making the book sound like a conversation really, really weakens it. Just read. I would not get another book by this narrator. I pushed through listening to the second half of this book, and coming back to it again…it is just awful. The narrator makes this helpful book unlistenable.

Insightful

Struggling with emotional eating since adolescence, this was the book that helped me get to the root of it all. I really found this so helpful in my recovery and actually listened twice because the messages were key. Amazing book

Dry but good content

The narration is very dry and melodic making me sleepy at times but the content is good.

Good recovery info -BUT writer Amy

I learned a lot. It was helpful. But it was clouded with Too many all or nothing statements that she is saying are true. Saying “I know ALL of you are thinking or doing XYZ.” (Are you an all knowing god?) Black and white views that make me scared for her client’s and their shame and recovery . She has some good teachings and examples but keeps having to tell us over and over how good a practitioner she is.
Hard to hear the meat and gold of the book over her personality.

Well written

I really enjoyed listening this book. I am going to apply this method during my sessions
