Treating Black Women with Eating Disorders
The first of its kind, this edited volume provides in-depth, culturally sensitive material intended for addressing the unique concerns of Black women with eating disorders in addition to comprehensive discussions and treatment guidelines for this population. The contributing authors—all of whom are Black professionals providing direct care to Black women—offer a range of perspectives to help readers understand the whole experience of their Black female clients. This includes not only discussion of their clients’ physical health but also of their emotional lives and the ways in which the stresses of racism, discrimination, trauma, and adverse childhood experiences can contribute to disordered eating. Through a wealth of diverse voices and stories, chapters boldly tackle issues such as stereotypes and acculturative stress. Clinicians of any race will gain new tools for assessing, diagnosing, and treating disordered eating in Black women and will be empowered to provide better care for their clients.
Black Women with Eating Disorders: Clinical Treatment Considerations
A guide for eating disorder clinicians to support Black clients with the quality, trauma-informed care they deserve. Too often, Black women with eating disorders go underdiagnosed, overlooked, and unheard. Not only do they face barriers to treatment due to unjust healthcare systems, but the unique factors that contribute to the development of eating disorders in Black women—including racism and systemic oppression—are not broadly considered by eating disorder clinicians. This book adds much-needed dialogue to our understanding of eating disorders by exploring the terminology, symptomology, and interventions specific to Black women, all of which can be integrated by clinicians across disciplines. It addresses how relevant topics in the eating disorder field—such as social media use, body image, weight stigma, historical trauma, and aging—manifest in the Black community. Within the therapeutic relationship, the authors acknowledge how treatment techniques can be adapted and power dynamics addressed, allowing clients to feel seen and heard. Ultimately, clients can reimagine their relationships to food and body, facilitating their recovery.
