Body Image Issues: Assessment, Treatment & Body Acceptance Interventions

Body image issues affect clients across the lifespan and often intersect with trauma, mood disorders, eating disorders, and social pressures. From chronic dieting and binge eating to body dysmorphia and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), distorted self-perception can significantly impair emotional well-being, relationships, and overall functioning.

This page features continuing education courses designed to help clinicians effectively assess and treat body image concerns using evidence-based, culturally responsive strategies. Whether you’re providing therapy for body image issues in private practice, schools, medical settings, or higher levels of care, you’ll find practical tools to support lasting change and promote positive body image and body acceptance.
