As a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and recovered clinician, Maria intends for The Workbook to be a supportive material to the book, Coming Back To Myself: A Compassionate Guide to Understanding and Healing from an Eating Disorder, and was created by the author to be an intentional check-in for individuals throughout the recovery process. Focus is given to goals, intention, emotion, and motivation, as themes the author hopes can help keep an individual focusing on the week by week, day by day, and moment by moment rather than the entire journey ahead. Every step matters. Every win counts. Every struggle is valid. Don’t forget to give yourself plenty of compassion along the way.
