Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Struggles with body image are often tied to deeper experiences of self-worth, comparison, and identity. I help individuals explore the underlying thoughts and emotions that shape how they see themselves, rather than only focusing on appearance. Through this work, clients develop a more grounded and compassionate relationship with themselves.

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.

Whole Wellness Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Our therapists at Whole Wellness Therapy are passionate about the connection between our body and mind. Our therapy team is comprised of clinicians who have each had their own internal dissonance between body and mind, therefore, we understand how much our mind impacts how we see our body, treat our body, and respond to our body. For our clients struggling with their body image, we start with jumping into their perspective to get a clear picture of what distortions might be present in their own perceptions, and work from the mind into the physical body to create more unity between body and mind, by building self-compassion that manifests into self-love, acceptance, and confidence.

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.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Body image concerns rarely develop in isolation. They are often shaped by family messages, culture, trauma, racism, sexism, ableism, neurodivergence, chronic illness, disability, gender expectations, religious experiences, social media, and the countless ways we are taught which bodies are considered worthy, acceptable, attractive, productive, healthy, or "normal." For many people, body image is deeply connected to belonging, safety, identity, visibility, self-worth, and the ways our bodies have been perceived, treated, regulated, or judged throughout our lives.
This work is grounded in an understanding that our relationships with our bodies are shaped not only by personal experiences, but also by larger cultural, historical, and systemic forces. Exploration may include the impacts of racism, colonialism, anti-fat bias, ableism, sexism, cisheteronormativity, beauty standards, diet culture, healthism, medical trauma, and other systems that communicate which bodies are valued and which are marginalized. Particular attention is given to the ways intersecting identities such as race, culture, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, spirituality, and socioeconomic experiences influence embodiment and body image.
My approach moves beyond surface-level body image concerns and into a deeper exploration of embodiment, nervous system experiences, identity, self-worth, intimacy, sexuality, sensory experiences, and belonging. Attention is given to the ways internalized messages, shame, comparison, perfectionism, masking, trauma, and cultural expectations may shape your relationship with your body. Exploration may also include the impacts of chronic illness, disability, neurodivergence, hormonal changes, body changes across the lifespan, and experiences of living in a body that may not align with societal expectations or dominant cultural norms.
My work is informed by Health at Every Size (HAES), body liberation, neurodiversity-affirming, disability-affirming, and liberation-oriented frameworks. Rather than focusing on weight, appearance, or changing your body to fit external standards, therapy supports developing a more compassionate, curious, and trusting relationship with yourself. Particular attention is given to reconnecting with bodily wisdom, interoception, sensory experiences, pleasure, rest, nourishment, movement, and the body's capacity to communicate needs, limits, emotions, and desires.
My intention is to support you in gently untangling inherited and internalized narratives while cultivating greater self-trust, self-compassion, embodied authenticity, safety, respect, choice, and freedom within your relationship with yourself and your body. Often, this work involves reclaiming embodiment on your own terms and creating space for your body to be experienced as a home rather than a problem to solve or vessel to abandon.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
We are all born into a world where our bodies are constantly under scrutiny. The race to look and feel good in our skin can be an exhausting one, both physically and emotionally. My particular experience is that of a gay man trying to fit into a culture that puts a huge pressure on body image, sexual currency and attractiveness. These issues can be extremely hard to navigate and can lead to anxiety, depression and low self-worth. Together we will work on building a more robust sense of self which will allow you to feel more comfortable in your skin.

When You Don’t Feel at Home in Your Body
You might spend hours thinking about food, weight, or how your body looks — yet still feel disconnected or never “enough.” Maybe you compare yourself to others, replay comments you’ve heard about your appearance, or struggle to enjoy things you love because you’re too aware of how you look doing them.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. So many people — especially women — carry an invisible burden of shame, guilt, and self-criticism around their bodies. What starts as “wanting to be healthier” can turn into a constant inner battle. In our work together, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you quiet those harsh inner voices and reconnect with your body in a kinder, more trusting way. You’ll learn tools to:
Challenge the perfectionistic thoughts that feed self-criticism
Understand what drives body-focused fears and anxiety
Build new habits of self-acceptance and calm
Experience genuine comfort and confidence in your skin
Our sessions blend science, mindfulness, and compassion. You’ll have weekly check-ins to track progress and brief daily exercises to practice new patterns — because real change happens between sessions.
I BELIEVE:
Your body is not a problem to fix — it’s your home, your history, and your ally.
Confidence grows when we practice kindness toward ourselves, not punishment.
Comparison steals joy, but connection restores it.
You deserve to live fully — wear the clothes you love, eat without guilt, and show up in your life as you are.
Healing becomes easier when we add a little humor and humanity along the way.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
As someone who works around sexuality one of the most common issues I confront is body image issues and Body Dismorphia. I work with many Trans people in various stages of gender transformation who have issues with truly stepping into their new gender identity, feeling comfortable in their bodies. Using both hypnosis as well as hands on work, I help them more fully embrace their new identities, love their bodies more.
