Teens,Parents,Body Image and Well-Being

This book is intended for professional educators, clinicians, and students in social work, education, and related fields who are seeking updated theoretical knowledge and practical approaches to the treatment of issues relating to body awareness and body image. The book includes studies focusing on the adolescent daughter's perception of her relationship with her mother and its influence on her body image and the effect of adolescent boys' relationship with their parents and its effect on their body image and well-being. The final chapter moves from theory to practice, presenting practical activity sessions implemented during an academic clinical program. These activity sessions focus on the development of body awareness and body image as a tool in developing understanding and awareness for use in the training of students in the fields of social work, psychology, and education.
