Bridge the Food Gap: An ARFID Recovery Workbook

Bridge the Food Gap: An ARFID Recovery Workbook presents an integrative approach to ARFID recovery. It is an essential tool in bridging gaps between kids with ARFID and their parents, adults with ARFID and their loved ones, individuals with ARFID and themselves, and those with ARFID and their treatment teams. This workbook first provides the building blocks to understanding what, and who, ARFID is, and the essentials for ARFID recovery. Each chapter of this workbook is a building block to helping you or your loved one through every aspect of ARFID, mentally, emotionally, and physically. Once these building blocks are understood, the workbook then provides a bridge to specific strategies for use in the ARFID recovery journey. The tools provided within this workbook help improve nutritional needs and provide tangible experiences for increasing tolerance for fear foods in a manageable way. The worksheets are interwoven with the ideas presented; while they can be used by practitioners independently, they will be most helpful when working through the workbook step by step.
