Body image issues can present before, during and after an eating disorder has been treated. It is not uncommon for perfectionism leading to low self-esteem. These issues frequently present when the person has a history of Complex Trauma or gender identity issues. I have these patients followed by nutritionists who weigh them regularly to make their body weight maintained appropriately as well as making sure that healthy nutrition and appropriate exercise regimes are in place.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S
Body image counseling is a specialized form of psychotherapy that focuses on assisting individuals in developing a healthier and more positive relationship with their bodies. Body image is how individuals perceive and feel about their physical appearance, such as size, shape, and overall attractiveness. A negative body image can result in emotional distress, low self-esteem, and the onset of eating disorders or other mental health issues.
Body image therapy aims not to achieve a particular ideal body shape or size but to promote self-acceptance and a positive body image regardless of physical appearance. The therapeutic process is individualized, and the therapist collaborates with the client to address his or her particular requirements and objectives.
If negative body image is significantly affecting your well-being or contributing to mental health issues, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in body image therapy to begin the process of developing a healthier and more positive body image.
