Finding Peace with Your Body weaves together the author’s personal story as well as her work as a psychotherapist to create an interactive self-help guidebook to help readers find harmony with their bodies. This is an interactive book with a fresh perspective that encourages the reader to dive deeper into their own personal history and use this book as a place to journal and complete specific homework instructions to change their relationship with their body. This book includes personal anecdotes, theoretical orientation and specific clinical intervention in a way that helps the reader understand context, personal experience and the ability to create direct behavioral and cognitive change in their life. The journey map includes not only reflective prompts but also weaves in historical context regarding the subjugation of women’s bodies throughout time. Organized so that it can be used by individuals or practitioners assisting their clients along the journey of recovery from an eating disorder, this book offers readers hope, practical tools and a road map for working through specific body image issues with practical skills and therapeutic interventions.

Johanna Kulp, MSW, LCSW, is founder and owner of Live Well Therapy Associates, a psychotherapy practice in Philadelphia, PA. She has 15+ years’ experience helping those in eating disorder recovery.
