As a new way of thinking and approaching eating disorder treatments, Beating Ana introduces mentoring for those with eating disorders in much the same way that Alcoholics Anonymous provides sponsors for alcoholics seeking recovery. This book presents this familiar concept as a new and valid one for enhancing the treatment of eating disorders, by highlighting how the same approach cured the author of her fifteen-year battle with anorexia and bulimia. This is the first book to address mentoring and sponsoring as an effective and viable movement in the treatment of eating disorders.
