Natalie Campbell
Psychologist, PsyD; LLC
Body image issues may or may not be related to an eating disorder...or disordered eating. Emotional eating. As we work through shame, regrets, and a sense of low self-esteem, the body image will most likely improve.

Elka Cubacub
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
We live in a society where our bodies are so objectified and where there are endless expectations of what’s considered a “good enough” or “beautiful” body. Because of this, many of us grow up with disordered relationships with food and our bodies. I think of body image as similar to how we relate to another person. Before we really know someone, we might judge them based on how they look or carry themselves—but once we hear their story and get to know them on a deeper level, our judgments soften, and we become more accepting of who they are. I approach body image work in a similar way. Our bodies hold far more than physical traits—they’re the container for every emotion, thought, and experience we’ve ever had, and the way we connect with the world around us. As we get to know our bodies in a deeper way, the judgments begin to fade.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you're reading this you're probably wanting to feel better about how you look. You might not like my approach then, because my approach is to help you feel better about how you feel.
Instead of taking a cognitive approach to adjust your thinking about self-image, we can take a somatic approach, working with the charge of discomfort that can come up around body stuff, and finding ways to lower the intensity of that charge.

Body image concerns can affect people of all sizes and backgrounds.

This work recognizes that how we experience our bodies is complex and shaped by many factors beyond weight. Together, we’ll work toward greater body trust, self-acceptance, and peace with your body and yourself.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Body image counseling is a specialized form of psychotherapy that focuses on assisting individuals in developing a healthier and more positive relationship with their bodies. Body image is how individuals perceive and feel about their physical appearance, such as size, shape, and overall attractiveness. A negative body image can result in emotional distress, low self-esteem, and the onset of eating disorders or other mental health issues.
Body image therapy aims not to achieve a particular ideal body shape or size but to promote self-acceptance and a positive body image regardless of physical appearance. The therapeutic process is individualized, and the therapist collaborates with the client to address his or her particular requirements and objectives.
If negative body image is significantly affecting your well-being or contributing to mental health issues, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in body image therapy to begin the process of developing a healthier and more positive body image.
