The Relational Dimensions of Weight Management is a book for nonspecialist psychotherapists of any theoretical orientation to help patients concerned with weight management. Psychotherapy patients use their therapists as sounding boards to help them answer two questions: Do I need to lose weight? And, if I do need to lose weight, how should I go about it? Chapters provide therapists with the tools they need to help patients find personalized solutions to their weight loss concerns, to boost their self-image, and to deal with the judgment that is sometimes imposed by others, regardless of which weight management approach patients eventually embrace.
