It is linked to destructive feelings and behaviors including depression and anxiety, self-harm, substance abuse, relationship violence, and eating disorders. In this experiential training, Elizabeth Scott will introduce the resources therapists need to confidently assist their clients to transform their relationship with their bodies.
