“Wachter offers sound information from a variety of approaches and addresses the core issues of feelings, food, body image, and much more.

“In a language appealing to teens, Andrea Wachter has created a book that can help readers navigate their way through the challenges of adolescence, without turning to food. Teens will relate to the catchy titles of chapters and thought-provoking exercises, which can motivate them to deeply explore their emotions and strengthen their coping mechanisms. This workbook is a must-have for professionals treating teens and for the teens themselves.”

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall: Breaking The “I Feel Fat” Spell
This book is for kids who struggle with body image. Included is a fairy tale about a “Mirror Witch” who puts a spell on children, getting them to hate their bodies. There are 22 chapters, or “Spell Breakers,” which empower kids to question and change
their thinking while learning how to love their bodies and break the “I Feel Fat” Spell. While this book was written for kids, we have also discovered that many adults are finding it to be extremely helpful, if not life-changing.

Reviews for Mirror, Mirror on the Wall
“Describing a problem is easy; coming up with creative and effective solutions is the real challenge. With a foundation of one deceptively simple metaphor, Wachter and Marcus build a book for young people that is almost all solution. But kids aren’t the only beneficiaries here. Adults with body image problems would be wise to learn the ‘Spell Breakers’ in this book.”
– Thom Rutledge, co-author of Life Without Ed, author of The Self-Forgiveness Handbook
“In Mirror, Mirror on the Wall: Breaking the “I Feel Fat” Spell, Wachter and Marcus have created a great offering for an important population. Mirror, Mirror seeks to soothe self-doubt and body image anxiety in kids before they fall prey to disordered eating. The authors talk to the reader in a direct manner that cultivates educated understanding while also encouraging self-reflection and healthier thinking. Just as crucially, they help adults interact with kids using kid-friendly language and concepts. This is an upbeat, solution-oriented book that will make a positive impact on kids and parents alike.”
– Dr. Lucie Hemmen, author of Parenting a Teen Girl and The Teen Girl’s Survival Guide
“Mirror, Mirror on the Wall: Breaking the “I Feel Fat” Spell brings new insight to an issue that is becoming more and more confusing and heartbreaking for parents and kids. The authors speak with families and not at them. Each ‘Spell Breaker’ gives parents the tools they need to work with their kids and help them develop the self-esteem they deserve. Kids don’t have to suffer in silence and parents don’t have to feel powerless. I think this book will be a life changer for many families.”
– Marci Warhaft-Nadler, author of The Body Image Survival Guide for Parents
