The Broken Mirror: Understanding and Treating Body Dysmorphic Disorder

The Broken Mirror: Understanding and Treating Body Dysmorphic Disorder

Written by Katharine Phillips, The Broken Mirror is named “The BDD Bible” by BDD patients and their families and friends. With vast descriptions and information about BDD, the book focuses on how to treat the disorder. Psychiatrists, other mental health professionals, dermatologists and plastic surgeons also find this read essential and professional. I have added this book into the GoodReads column on my blog, please check out the related readings too!

“Dr. Phillips’ book is a landmark in the recognition and treatment of imagined uglyness. This book. beautifully written, provides a great deal of hope for patients with body dysmorphic disorder and their family members and should help speed recovery for countless sufferers of this common, fascinating, and disabling illness.” — Eric Hollander MD, Professor of Psychiatry, USA
