Courtney Nahow
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LPC
Society has taught us to dislike our body and obsess over our bodies not being perfect enough. I aim to help clients improve their body image by working towards body neutrality and learning ways to appreciate their body for what it can do for them versus how it looks. Let's dismantle perfectionism and stop placing blame on our bodies. I believe in helping folks make peace with their body image and work to undo societal programming related to self image.

Psychologist, PhD
Body image concerns are very common and my approach includes an emphasis on highlighting societal impacts as well as personal beliefs about body and a client's relationship to their body. I utilize some Cognitive Behavioral Therapy principles with a focus on improving a client's relationship with their body, exploring emotional factors that contribute to dissatisfaction and healing one's relationship with their body.

Dr. Alexavery Hawkins
Psychologist, PhD
I help people with body image concerns create flexibility as they heal their relationship with their body and move away from thin ideal/diet culture so they can soften their perfectionism and live a more full and joyous life. I also enjoy addressing gender dysphoria in treatment and helping clients find ways to affirm their gender identity and start to see and appreciate their true selves.
