Stegall Counseling PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCMHC, NCC, LRT, CTRS
Body image involves two key elements: a mental picture of one’s physical body (including size, shape, and appearance), and one’s attitude toward the physical self (such as thoughts, feelings and beliefs about one’s body). A negative or unhealthy body image can contribute to low self-esteem and cause persistent anxiety, which in some extreme cases can interfere with our daily living. A healthy body image means that you begin to accept the body that you have and are committed to loving and caring for your body even with the flaws. Let's work together to begin to love and celebrate our bodies.

Robert Lewis Bozard
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, MDiv, LCMHC, LPC
Male body image was the subject of my PhD dissertation research. The way we think and feel about our bodies impacts many other areas of life. Males may be especially reluctant to acknowledge and seek help for body concerns. I help men learn to accept themselves with pride and confidence.

Leah Donatelli
Therapist, LCMHCA, NCC
Body image challenges speak in metaphor. Together we uncover these metaphors and the way they speak to attachment challenges and self-trust challenges. I see the body as a wise source to be listened to. As we restore your sense of self trust, body image challenges can decrease so that your life can be full of more meaningful ways to spend your time than trying to manipulate the size and shape of you. You are worthy of taking up space.

Are you living out someone else's story of your body?
Is your relationship with your body one of judgement, shame, disconnection or control?

We carry around our families old stories or culture's stories of our bodies so we need learn to rewrite those stories and live out different endings. You deserve a loving strong relationship with your body that allows you for more self-acceptance and peace in your life. Through a variety of tools that may include somatic work, art therapy, yoga or other modalities begin the path of returning to your body.
