Professionals Say:

"A wise and wonderful, sensitive and sane contribution. Cohen offers a user friendly guide to understanding and healing the battle with food, fat, and body hatred. Beautifully written, very related."

"French Toast for Breakfast clearly and effectively describes the intimate connection between eating disorders and the emotional pains and stressors that cause them. Verbatim transcripts of actual group and individual therapy sessions take readers directly into the treatment room and make them part of the healing process. This book will appeal to a wide audience because it demystifies the process of psychotherapy."

"This book is richly illustrated with examples that bring to life the inner struggles of many who are in the throes of grappling with their relationship to food. Mary Anne Cohen’s perspective on treatment, combining the principles of O.A. with the anti-deprivation model, will be of interest to those from many different disciplines."

"French Toast for Breakfast expresses everything you wish your therapist had told you about how to resolve your eating problems. 99% of therapists don’t deal with the depth that Mary Anne Cohen does. This book is beautifully written, terrific examples, awesome!"

"A very helpful resource for understanding the inner workings of our obsessions with food, thinness, and dieting. In a very masterful way, Mary Anne lays a clear path for beginning the healing process and helps unlock the mystery of the painful feelings which we cover up by eating."
