Naomi Feigenbaum holds a bachelor's degree in Psychology from Cleveland State University, Ohio and is currently pursuing a master's degree in Mental Health Counseling at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Naomi writes and speaks on the topic of recovery from eating disorders, spreading messages of hope and empowerment.

[The author] aims to help people in transition from treatment to
normal life... Case studies are used as examples in each chapter,
including the author's personal experience... This book is
perceptive and well written and based on the lived experience
*Mental Health Practice*
One of the most helpful aspects associated with Naomi Feigenbaum's
"Maintaining Recovery from Eating Disorders" is the lack of
triggering information. Unlike many other books on these
increasingly common mental health conditions, the focus is on the
journey sufferers face beyond eating disorders. While most books
about eating disorders look at the symptoms experienced during
periods of illness, Feigenbaum shows the reader how to truly
embrace recovery. Anyone who is actively in recovery from an eating
disorder will find the practical, easy to understand information on
recovering life to be extremely helpful.

Focusing on how to stay healthy after initial recovery from an
eating disorder, this book is aimed at anyone coping with daily
life after concluding in- or outpatient treatment. Feigenbaum
offers sensible advice and gives specific recommendations, e.g.,
keep a journal and find a reputable nutritionist....Anyone trying
to stay on a healthful track after completing treatment for eating
disorders can find helpful words of advice here.
*Library Journal*
Maintaining Recovery from Eating Disorders is a beautiful account
of healing - woven together with wisdom, support, and much hope.
But author Naomi Feigenbaum doesn't stop there. She takes us beyond
eating disorder recovery and into life! Her book is a testimony to
the fact that we recover from our eating disorders in order to
recover our true selves. We get rid of Ed and get our lives back.
Thanks, Naomi, for sharing your life with us.

Eating Disorder and Fall in Love with Life and Life Without Ed: How
One Woman Declared Independence from Her Eating Disorder and How
You Can Too*
[This book] helps empower the reader to continue her journey of
self-discovery and emotional growth.
*From the foreword by Rebekah Bardwell, founder and director of The
Center for Intuitive Eating Intensive Outpatient Eating Disorders
Program, Hollywood Pavilion, Hollywood, FL.*
By means of several progressive case studies illustrating practical
techniques skilfully woven into the narrative, the author draws on
her own experience as a graduate of the treatment facility she
remains associated with professionally, inspired by her erstwhile
focal counsellor... Written in an engaging user-friendly manner,
this book might serve as a valuable resource for practitioners to
recommend as a handbook for clients who are reaching the
reintegration stage of recovery post-treatment.
