Join Arie Winograd in this webinar exploring the complex relationship between BDD compulsions and the search for hope. Individuals with BDD often engage in compulsive behaviours driven by a yearning for reassurance for things to look or feel ‘right’. However, these very behaviours can hinder recovery, perpetuating cycles of shame and obstructing the development of an integrated identity. This session will explore the psychological dynamics at play, and share practical suggestions on how to navigate this very challenging aspect of BDD.
