Male body image help...anything in Denver? (Boulder, Center: insurance, to eat)

[Jeremystudent]

I hope this is an okay place to ask this. I've done a lot of google searching and come up with nothing. All I can really find is stuff for women with eating disorders.

I'm wondering if there's anything in the Denver area or even just Colorado for male body image - therapy, support groups, anything - and hopefully not centered just on eating disorders as that's not what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance if anyone can help me.

I would first work your insurance company's web page and make sure you understand everything you'd be eligible for.
Then I'd work the internet.

Maybe try changing your keywords when you search? Is there a formal clinical name for this? Find out and search on it.

There is something called Body Dysmorphic Disorder (not a gender specific thing, or eating disorder although it can involve that for sure), though I don't know if I'm at the level...

Regardless I'm still not finding much. All I can find really is stuff related to eating disorders or generalized articles on it, nothing in Denver that could help me.
