Contrary to popular belief, body dysmorphia can affect individuals of all shapes, sizes, and genders. While it may co-occur with eating disorders, body dysmorphia itself is not inherently linked to weight or food. Instead, it manifests as a relentless pursuit of perfection, leading to significant distress and impairment in daily functioning.

Living with body dysmorphia can be incredibly challenging, often resulting in feelings of shame, isolation, and misery. The relentless cycle of negative thoughts and compulsive behaviors can create a profound sense of suffering, impacting every aspect of one's life.

In therapy, we approach body dysmorphia with compassion and understanding, recognizing the deep-rooted nature of this condition. Our focus is on improving insight, increasing self-compassion, and fostering radical acceptance – not just of one's appearance, but of the uncertainty and discomfort that come with not knowing.

Through a combination of evidence-based therapies and holistic approaches, we work together to challenge distorted beliefs, confront intrusive thoughts, and build resilience in the face of uncertainty. Our goal is to empower individuals to reclaim their sense of self-worth, freeing them from the grips of body dysmorphia and fostering a life of authenticity and fulfillment.
