I support clients struggling with body image through a trauma-informed, compassionate approach rooted in Compassionate Inquiry®.

In therapy, we gently explore these patterns while building greater body awareness, self-compassion, and a more respectful, connected relationship with the body.

Samantha Kingma
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Have you noticed that you haven’t been feeling quite like yourself? Like something feels off, but you’re not exactly sure why? No matter how hard you work, you always feel behind and can't seem to ever catch up on your to-do list. Maybe you keep thinking that you "should" be doing better and you "shouldn't" be struggling this way. You want to be present, calm, and confident, but you aren’t sure how to get there. It is possible for you to feel like yourself again and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there.
I help teens, adults, and couples who are feeling stuck and disconnected to find freedom and relief. I'll collaborate with you to notice the themes and patterns occurring in your life that might be causing problems and then work alongside you to find new options and solutions to address those patterns.
Whether you are experiencing anxiety, dealing with past trauma, relationship difficulties, or just think it might be helpful to talk to someone about how you are feeling, I’d love to talk with you about how I can help. Visit my website to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about whether I might be the right therapist for you.

Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Body image struggles run deeper than appearance — they are rooted in how we learned to see ourselves, what we were taught our worth depends on, and how safety and acceptance became tied to the way we look. At Restored, we approach body image with compassion and clinical depth, addressing the underlying beliefs and emotional patterns driving these struggles rather than simply reframing thoughts. Our integrated team also supports clients for whom body image intersects with physical health concerns, offering truly whole-person care.

Ashley Higgins
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you someone who struggles to feel present in their body? Do you feel attuned to your body's cues? Are you tired of always being on a diet? Are you hoping to have a better relationship with food and movement, but unsure how to get there?
Body image struggles can feel so isolating, but you do not have to face them alone. Therapy with me isn’t about judgment or “fixing” your relationship with your body- it's about building insight and practical tools around your body image struggles. Together, we’ll navigate anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, chronic illness, and more- and how ALL of these affect how you feel about your body.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for body image issues, low self-esteem, negative self-image, shame, and emotional struggles related to appearance, identity, and self-worth. Many individuals experiencing body image concerns struggle with anxiety, self-criticism, perfectionism, comparison, social pressure, or feelings of not being “good enough.” These challenges can affect confidence, relationships, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life.
Body image difficulties are often connected to deeper emotional experiences, including past trauma, bullying, criticism, rejection, relationship wounds, or painful life experiences that continue to shape how a person sees themselves. Social media, cultural expectations, and unrealistic standards portrayed in mainstream media can also intensify feelings of inadequacy, insecurity, and emotional distress.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to counseling, helping clients explore and heal the underlying emotional experiences contributing to negative self-image and unhealthy patterns of self-perception. Therapy focuses on helping clients move beyond shame, self-judgment, and unrealistic expectations while developing greater self-acceptance, emotional balance, confidence, and authenticity.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-focused counseling, mindfulness-based strategies, emotional regulation techniques, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and lasting healing. Together, you will explore past experiences, emotional triggers, relationship dynamics, and core beliefs that may be impacting your self-worth and sense of identity today.
Therapy is collaborative, supportive, and personalized to each client’s unique experiences and goals. Brad provides a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where clients can openly process emotional pain, strengthen self-awareness, improve self-esteem, and reconnect with who they truly are beyond external pressures and unrealistic standards.
The goal of therapy is not only to reduce emotional distress, but to help clients develop a healthier relationship with themselves, create lasting emotional resilience, and live with greater confidence, peace, and authenticity. Healing is possible, and you can learn to appreciate yourself for who you truly are while building a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
Virtual counseling and online EMDR therapy sessions are available, offering confidential and convenient access to professional trauma-focused therapy from the comfort of home.

Lots of people don’t like their bodies. Maybe abuse or neglect created dissociation, an eating disorder or depression. Body distortions can happen for a variety of reasons, each needing a somewhat different approach. I’m also an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist.

Mesa is one of the largest suburbs in the United States and part of the greater Phoenix metro, with a significant LDS (Latter-day Saint) community that shapes the social fabric and the therapy landscape — many residents seek therapists who can integrate faith values with evidence-based approaches to anxiety, relationship issues, and family dynamics. The city's car-dependent suburban sprawl and intense summer heat contribute to social isolation, and therapists here frequently address loneliness and the challenges of building genuine community in a dispersed environment. Banner Desert Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, and many Mesa residents also access care through the broader Phoenix-metro therapy ecosystem. The city's large Latino and Mormon populations both drive demand for culturally specific therapeutic approaches.
