For Eating Disorders Awareness Week, Karen and Kerrie hosted a webinar with Dr Charlynn Small and Dr Mazella Fuller, co-editors of the new book, Treating Black Women with Eating Disorders, A Clinician’s Guide. At the end of the panel discussion, Karen shared recommended reading and workbooks for working with Black, Asian and ethnically diverse communities. For those who were unable to attend the webinar – or who didn’t have time to jot down the recommendations! – here they are.
