Kathryn Hansen recovered from bulimia in 2005; she is now dedicated to educating and empowering women and men who struggle with all forms of binge eating. She is the author of Brain over Binge: Why I Was Bulimic, Why Conventional Therapy Didn’t Work, and How I Recovered for Good (2011), which is a personal memoir of her own eating disorder and recovery; and The Brain over Binge Recovery Guide: A Simple and Personalized Plan for Overcoming Bulimia and Binge Eating Disorder (2016), which is a self-help book based on the concepts that helped Kathryn and many others stop binge eating. Kathryn provides an alternative voice in the field of eating disorders—teaching brain-based reasons for why binge eating occurs, and departing from mainstream ideas that say eating disorders are the result of underlying emotional/psychological problems and require years of therapy to fix. She does not believe bulimia and binge eating disorder are diseases, but instead very natural, but “primitive” brain responses to restrictive dieting and the repeated overconsumption of highly stimulating foods. She teaches readers how to take back control from the primitive part of their brains, and use their higher cognitive power to chart a path to recovery in the most efficient way possible. Her goal is to make recovery attainable for anyone who wants to live free of binge eating. http://www.brainoverbinge.com
