Identity, body image, and self esteem

Often a target of psychotherapy treatment, these types of difficulties are common and can create a lot of psychological distress. Working with an experienced clinician can help navigate the journey of self understanding and acceptance. It can also be important to distinguish an insecurity or preoccupation from a more defined disorder like body dysmorphia or an eating disorder. Understanding the nuances of these difficulties helps inform prognosis and treatment planning.
