Edward Abramson Ph.D. Biography

Edward Abramson, Ph.D., is the author of "It's NOT Just Baby Fat: 10 Steps to Help Your Child to a Healthy Weight." A clinical psychologist in Lafayette, California, Abramson gives workshops and talks on emotional eating, weight control, and eating disorders throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe.

A formerly fat kid and overweight adult, he knows that it's easier to prevent obesity in childhood than it is to lose weight as an adult. He enjoys teaching parents how to help their kids maintain a healthy weight without increasing the risk of an eating disorder. Dr. Abramson is the author of four previous books including "Body Intelligence" and "Emotional Eating" as well as many scientific studies of obesity and eating disorders.

Dr. Abramson has appeared on dozens of television and radio programs including 20/20, Hard Copy and Joan Rivers. He is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at California State University and former Director of the Eating Disorders Center at Chico Community Hospital.

    • Acceptance and guilt-free understanding of past dieting failures
    • A practical, individualized action plan for permanent weight control

  • Overcoming Emotional Eating

    Overview: Whether it takes the form of an uncontrolled eating binge or just unnecessary snacking, emotional eating causes weight gain, guilty feelings, and undermines any efforts to lose weight.
