S05 E03 - The Experiences of Body Dysmorphic Disorder in Adolescents

In this episode we speak to Dr Nicole Schnackenberg a Child, Community and Educational Psychologist, psychotherapist and trustee of the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Foundation.
We discuss what Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) is and the experiences of adolescents suffering from this condition. We explore how BDD is related to relationships, shame and a sense of belonging and how we can support those showing difficulties to feel heard and supported by others.
