Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Struggles with coping with body image concerns can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can explore how to address your body image concerns and how these struggles may impact your happiness and ability to get what you want. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Kathryn Sedgwick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Body dysmorphia is painful: As a transwoman, I know. There are, however, a number of ways of coping with, if not completely eliminating, this condition; I will work with you to minimize what can often be a profoundly uncomfortable condition.

Mary Karlan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Work
I am experienced working with young adults struggling with body image issues such as body dysmorphia, Bulimia, Anorexia Nervosa, and being overweight. Social media can be great in many ways, however, young people today are increasingly feeling that they always have to look “camera ready!” People are judged on their instagram photos and how many “likes” they get, and this can make body image take center stage and ;therefore, cause low self-esteem.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I work with both adults and adolescents on an individual basis. Individual psychotherapy helps clients deal with particular issues, symptoms, and stressors. My goal is to provide a safe, non judgmental space for you to explore who you are, how you relate to others, and what supports you on your journey to become your best self. I lean into, listen, understand, and enhance authentic expression. Together we create a collaborative process of transformation. What that means and what that looks like is different for everyone...
I offer evidence-based therapies from a curious, nonjudgmental philosophy. No matter where you have been, evidence-based therapies focus on changing the now. I strive to help my clients experience the world mindfully, and in accordance with their personal values. Through our work in cultivating an affirming, authentic, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, I provide support while we collaboratively deconstruct what is causing distress in your life and preventing you from being your most effective and authentic self. Individual therapy facilitates insight and growth, becoming more effective at actualizing your values, and building more authentic relationships with yourself and with others.
While there are many forms of therapy you can pursue, my expertise is in time-limited, evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT), the Unified Protocol for emotional disorders, and third wave CBT such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness based interventions. (I do have experience in, and practice, an eclectic arrangement of other modalities as well-- when applicable or specifically requested.) We explore thoughts, beliefs, and understanding, while also prioritizing behavioral processes that focus on your contexts and the functions of how you relate to your internal experiences. CBT is designed to help individuals notice and shift their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to get relief from painful emotions such as anxiety and sadness.
Third wave interventions also promote well-being through developing coping skills, personal values, and metacognition that complement traditional CBT interventions. I provide flexible, customizable approaches that look different with each patient. I empower my clients to discover their strength, clarity, creativity, autonomy, resilience, motivation, and confidence in meeting whatever happens next. I provide individualized tools to use in everyday decision-making that will help those changes last. With these modalities I treat individuals who are impacted by depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship distress, burnout, divorce, loss, uncertainty, stigma, and other life experiences, diagnoses, and stressors. We explore the sources, experiences, and beliefs that impact how you relate with the world and implement change in your life. You are the expert on you, but are you your most effective and content self?
