It makes sense then, that body image and self-esteem can significantly affect our emotional well-being.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino;\">Body image is the mental picture we have of ourselves, along with the feelings we have when we look at our reflection. A person with a healthy body image accepts their body as it is and is not actively trying to change it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino;\">Self-esteem is the image you have of yourself as a person. A healthy self-esteem reflects a perspective of respect and appreciation for who you are, as you are right now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino;\">The truth is, we all struggle at times with our body image and self-esteem. We all need an accurate understanding of what impacts our thoughts and feelings about ourselves and our bodies, both negatively and positively, so that we can respond intentionally. And sometimes we need feedback and support from outside of ourselves to gauge the accuracy of our understanding and give ourselves the opportunity to develop a healthier perspective and habits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino;\">If you\u2019re feeling stuck and are looking for ideas about how you can improve your body image and self-esteem, support is available. Kristine Proctor is an experienced, licensed clinical social worker with a practice dedicated to helping people become the best they can be through various talk therapies and experiential therapies, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and the Emotional Freedom Technique.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino;\">Kristine can help you to identify the contributing factors to your feelings and thoughts about yourself and give you the support and tools to increase your self-esteem and self-confidence, have a more stable mood, improve your body image and lead to a general overall improvement in the quality of your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\n<span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino;\">Reach out to Kristine Proctor at 386-473-1062 or <a title=\"Contact Me\" href=\"https:\/\/kristineproctorcounselingdeland.com\/counselordeland\/contact-us-3\/\">send her a message now<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino; font-size: 16pt;\"><span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Book Antiqua,Palatino; font-size: 16pt;\">Find yourself, and be that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-882 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/kristineproctorcounselingdeland.com\/counselordeland\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/KristineHmPg7Transp552020-300x64.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"64\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kristineproctorcounselingdeland.com\/counselordeland\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/KristineHmPg7Transp552020-300x64.png 300w, https:\/\/kristineproctorcounselingdeland.com\/counselordeland\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/KristineHmPg7Transp552020.png 347w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Licensed Clinical Social Worker<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 EMDR Certified Therapist<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 112 W.
