Body Image Therapy in Warren, NJ
Do you feel like your body has to look a certain way to be "enough"?
When perfectionism shows up in body image, it can feel like you're constantly measuring yourself against an impossible standard- and always coming up short.
Is your self-worth tied to how "in control" you feel about food, weight, or your appearance?
Anxious perfectionists often equate control with safety. But trying to control your body to feel better about yourself can lead to exhaustion, anxiety, and shame.
Are you tired of obsessing over how you look- but scared to let go of that pressure?
You might know that your inner critic is harsh and unfair but changing the way you think about your body feels risky. We can help you loosen that grip, without losing your sense of self.
