How to Address Eating Disorders

Presented by Stenhouse Publishers

Friday, September 18, 2026·9:00 AM

Published by Routledge (Stenhouse Publishers imprint), 'How to Address Eating Disorders' is a professional resource edited by Celdran that equips educators and school-based professionals with the knowledge and practical strategies needed to recognise and respond to eating disorders among students. This first edition publication addresses a critical gap in educator preparation, as eating disorders affect students across all demographics and can significantly impact academic performance, social development, and overall wellbeing. The book provides evidence-based guidance on identifying warning signs, understanding the spectrum of disordered eating behaviours, creating supportive school environments, and knowing when and how to refer students and families to appropriate clinical resources. For educators working in pastoral care, student welfare, school counselling, or health education, this resource offers an essential foundation for supporting vulnerable students while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. The publication reflects growing recognition that schools play a vital role in early identification and intervention for eating disorders.
