Send us a text

In this episode, we take a deep, compassionate look into Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) as outlined in the DSM-5—an often misunderstood condition that goes far beyond everyday insecurity. We break down the diagnostic criteria, common specifiers, and the ways BDD uniquely impacts perception, attention, and daily functioning.

You’ll hear how mindfulness, media literacy, and self-compassion practices complement evidence-based treatment. This episode is a blend of education, technique, and hope—for therapists doing the work and clients walking the journey.
