As mentioned above CBT helps people to notice and change unhelpful thoughts (i.e. cognitions) and behaviours. For Body Dysmorphic Disorder, CBT involves a person challenging the distress-causing beliefs they hold about their appearance. In addition, a CBT therapist will help a person to reduce the repetitive behaviours and mental acts that they engage in because of their appearance concerns. This, in turn, lessens a person&#8217;s symptoms and frees them up to engage in other more meaningful pursuits.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reference:<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/DSM-5\">American Psychiatric Association.
