The Delray Recovery Center Hosts a Workshop on Treating Body Image Issues
Delray Beach, FL (PRWEB) April 04, 2014 -- The Delray Recovery Center is hosting a workshop presented by Jennifer Lorey, LCSW. The workshop titled “A Look at Body Image Issues – The Evolution, Continuum, and Possible Treatment Methods” will be held on Friday, March 25, 2014 from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm at the Hyatt Place in Delray Beach, Florida. This educational event will award participants 3 CE units, and the registration fee is $20.
This presentation will look at the history of body image and how the idealized body has changed over the years. Participants will examine the various influences over the years, as well as how these changes have impacted the age of those who struggle and the severity in which they suffer. The workshop will focus on the body image continuum and how this progressive illness can cause self-destructive, fatal behavior choices. The presentation will also cover three of the most commonly used treatment methods when working with clients who suffer with these issues.
