Nourishing Recovery: A New Integrated Approach to Nutritional Care for Eating Disorders is a professional resource for clinicians, students, educators, treatment team members, and caregivers seeking a deeper understanding of effective nutritional care in eating disorder treatment.

Drawing on decades of clinical experience, Lisa Pearl and Marci Evans present an integrated approach that invites readers to rethink nutritional care, not simply as the process of helping someone eat differently, but as a therapeutic process that can rebuild safety, strengthen agency, deepen self-attunement, and support recovery in ways that extend far beyond the plate.

Their framework brings together nutrition science, therapeutic relationship, neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and interdisciplinary collaboration to address the complex needs of individuals across the eating disorder spectrum. Informed by qualitative research exploring clients' experiences and grounded in the voices of people in recovery, Nourishing Recovery places clients' perspectives at the heart of informing clinical practice.
