Sara Denman
Psychologist, Psy.D
Unfortunately in our culture people tend to feel their value is based on looks, particularly body image. Because so much focus is placed on our bodies, the way we feel about ourselves is almost always an issue even if it isn't what has brought someone to therapy originally. It is very rewarding working with someone to improve the way they feel about themselves and as a result, increased self-confidence follows.

Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Working on our body image can be a life long process. I have found that this is a common "go to" in our thoughts when we are feeling negative about almost anything in our life. Working to notice how a thought can affect our feelings and then practicing "catching" our thoughts as they happen and refocus them can completely turn around these sticky negative body image thoughts.

Vanessa Wolter Holistic Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have extensive experience working with negative body image. In our culture we get bombarded by objectifying and impossible messages of what our body should look like. It’s no wonder we eventually start to objectify ourselves. I work by identifying the messages clients have introjected to create more and more mental and somatic Soave from them. I use compassion focused therapy to help clients nurture a sense of empathy for their journeys and their bodies. From a place of compassion self-love can flourish.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
We are born happy in our own skin. As kids, we are curious about our bodies and enjoy exploring them. Then something goes wrong. A well-meaning parent suggests we skip dessert, and the dolls we play with are so anatomically inaccurate they would fall over if they were humans. Then we start to attend school and become more aware of the larger culture. We notice only certain types of bodies are portrayed in the media. Our peers and our social media tell us we should look a particular way. This story may sound familiar, and sadly, it’s a common one. Unfortunately, for so many of us, the dissatisfaction with our bodies starts when we are young and persists for many years, particularly if we don’t start to examine how we think. Together, through radical self-acceptance, fat positivity, and the anti-diet framework we can begin to work toward healing.

Misty Johnson
Counselor/Therapist, LCSW
We all hear a duality of messages: Criticize your body: Accept you body. We all walk this line yet it's normal to intellectually know something is not right but to embody acceptance of oneself is also possible with support.
