Do you cringe when you see a picture of yourself? Do you say negative things about how you look? If so, you’re not alone. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to improve your body image.
Dr. Charlotte Markey is a renowned health psychologist and professor of psychology. She has an extensive background in body image research and has authored several influential books.
