Health anxiety is a condition that can affect anyone. Those affected by health anxiety have a disproportionate and sometimes obsessive preoccupation with the idea that they - or a loved one including children - are currently (or will be) experiencing a physical illness or medical problem.
"Health anxiety (sometimes called hypochondria) is when you spend so much time worrying you're ill, or about getting ill, that it starts to take over your life."

Do your clients often find themselves overly fixated on a specific aspect of their appearance? Do they perceive a particular part of their body as significantly flawed? Have they noticed that their efforts to improve or hide this area are consuming excessive time and negatively impacting their life? Do they find it challenging to accept compliments about their appearance? If the answer is yes to any of these questions, they may be grappling with Body Dysmorphic Disorder. Join us for this workshop on an increasingly important condition.
