The Teen and Adolescent Binge Eating Workbook

Evidence-Based Skills for Understanding, Managing, and Overcoming Binge Eating Disorder

The First Binge Eating Workbook Built Specifically for Teens

Binge eating disorder is the most common eating disorder among adolescents—yet nearly every recovery resource available was written for adults. The examples miss the mark. The triggers that define a teenager's world—social media comparison, cafeteria anxiety, peer pressure around body image, and the constant demand to look a certain way—are left completely unaddressed. This 13-chapter workbook changes that. It was designed from the ground up for readers aged 12 to 18, written at a 7th-to-9th-grade reading level, and grounded in the same evidence-based therapies used in clinical eating disorder treatment programs.

A Comprehensive, Evidence-Based Recovery Program

The workbook integrates four proven therapeutic frameworks: cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for identifying and restructuring the thought patterns that drive binge episodes, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) for building emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills, interpersonal therapy (IPT) for repairing the relationship dynamics that fuel emotional eating, and mindfulness-based interventions for developing present-moment awareness around food and body signals. Every technique is adapted for the adolescent brain, delivered in conversational language, and reinforced through interactive exercises.

Four Progressive Parts That Mirror the Recovery Journey

Part I builds understanding of what binge eating actually is, how the brain and body drive the binge cycle, and why stress, shame, loneliness, and boredom hijack eating behavior. Part II teaches core coping skills through hands-on CBT thought records, DBT distress tolerance techniques, and interpersonal effectiveness exercises. Part III assembles a practical toolkit: structured meal planning that rejects diet culture, body image resilience strategies for navigating social media, and a personalized relapse prevention plan. Part IV addresses the bigger picture—self-worth beyond appearance, stronger family bonds, mental health advocacy, and sustainable long-term recovery.

Engaging Chapter Structure That Holds a Teen's Attention

Each chapter opens with a relatable teen character story, followed by Real Talk sections that explain clinical science in plain language, Check Yourself self-assessments, Skill Build exercises, Try This hands-on activities, private My Page journaling space, and Family Zone sidebars that give parents and caregivers concrete ways to support recovery. Chapter Checkpoints consolidate each lesson before moving forward.

Weight-Neutral, Non-Shaming, and Clinically Informed

This workbook never frames binge eating as a failure of willpower. It never prescribes diets or calorie counting. It treats binge eating disorder as what current research confirms it to be: a treatable mental health condition rooted in emotional regulation, thought patterns, and relationship dynamics. All 13 chapters include citations to peer-reviewed research.

Flexible Enough for Any Setting

The program works independently, with a therapist or school counselor, or as a family-guided resource. Front matter includes a detailed parent and caregiver guide, crisis resources, safety screening guidance, and pacing instructions for completing one to two chapters per week. For mental health professionals, it serves as a structured clinical tool for individual or group work with adolescent clients presenting with binge eating disorder, emotional eating, or disordered eating patterns.
