Headline: Healing Your Relationship with Your Body in a Culture That Isn’t on Your Side
The Reality of Living in Diet Culture
We live in a world that makes it feel nearly impossible to exist without a constant, critical inner monologue about your body or your plate. No one comes out of our weight-obsessed culture unscathed, and for many, the "baggage" of these stories becomes a heavy, daily burden. If you feel like you are constantly at war with your reflection or your appetite, you are not alone—and it isn’t your fault.
A Sanctuary of Body Liberation
My practice is rooted in Body Liberation. I believe that every body—including yours—is inherently worthy of acceptance, compassion, and uncompromising care. I specialize in helping individuals who have never felt "safe" accepting themselves in a world that demands they change.
My Specialized Framework
In a private-pay setting, you deserve a therapist who understands the high-stakes complexity of recovery. My approach is defined by:
Health at Every Size (HAES®): I provide weight-neutral care that honors the rich diversity of human shapes and sizes. We focus on health behaviors and psychological well-being, not the number on the scale.
Nuanced Advocacy: We will engage in the sophisticated, often difficult conversations required to navigate a medical system and a culture preoccupied with size.
A Roadmap to Peace: We move beyond "body positivity" toward body neutrality and liberation—helping you reclaim the mental energy currently spent on body-checking and food-tracking so you can reinvest it in your actual life.
Why Choose This Approach?
You are investing in more than just "talk therapy." You are investing in a specialized partnership that challenges the status quo of your suffering. Together, we will untangle your worth from your weight and build a foundation of self-trust that diet culture can no longer shake.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals struggling with body image by exploring the thoughts, beliefs, and external influences that shape how they see themselves. Body image concerns often involve self-criticism, comparison, and feeling disconnected from your body. In therapy, we focus on building awareness of these patterns and developing a more balanced and compassionate relationship with your body. I incorporate CBT and ACT-based approaches to help clients challenge unhelpful thoughts, reduce avoidance, and shift focus toward living a meaningful life rather than being defined by appearance.

Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
I work from a liberation psychology standpoint, and humanist framework, observing individuals as a whole, and when it comes to the war against body discrimination and terrorism I believe in working to enhance radical acceptance through promoting self-contentment. Focusing on the present, let us work together to make changes that will hold space for personal growth and cultivate contentment, radical self-love, congruence, joy, stability, forward movement, and fulfilment.
