Summary
We have been asked by clinicians over the years how to best help individuals with body image issues. Just as it is important for clients and readers to educate themselves about positive body image, it is also important that clinicians: (a) know how to help clients in meaningful and effective ways, and (b) have an awareness and understanding of their own body image experiences. We offer frequently asked questions and answers about clinical interventions for positive body image. Additionally, we offer assignments specifically designed for clinicians to promote increased self-awareness.
