Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We specialize in supporting clients who struggle with body image, self-worth, and the mental performance pressures that often accompany high expectations, whether in athletics, academics, careers, or personal life. Many clients experience a constant internal dialogue of self-criticism, comparison, or feeling like their value is tied to their appearance or performance. This can lead to anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, and a disconnection from their own sense of confidence and identity. Our work focuses on helping clients develop a healthier relationship with their body, strengthen self-trust, and shift from harsh self-judgment to a more grounded, supportive internal voice. Using evidence-based and performance-informed approaches, we help clients improve mental resilience, emotional regulation, and confidence so they can perform at their highest level while maintaining their well-being and sense of self.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Body image struggles are rarely just about appearance—they are often rooted in messages from culture, family, and trauma. I create a safe space to untangle shame, comparison, and disconnection from your body. Through somatic awareness and culturally centered conversations, we work toward body respect, intuitive eating, and freedom from the weight of external expectations.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
How you feel about your body is rarely actually about your body. It's about control, worth, safety, and the stories you've absorbed from your family, your culture, and every relationship that ever made you feel like you were too much or not enough. At Simple Empathy we work beneath the surface of body image struggles to address the deeper narrative — who told you that you weren't enough, and why did you believe them? Direct, honest and depth-oriented work for people ready to stop fighting their own reflection.

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.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Body image concerns are some of the most common conversations people have in building a satisfying sexual life. Body image concerns can also deeply affect self-esteem, confidence, emotional well-being, and other relationship dynamics. Couples therapy provides a supportive space to explore the experiences, messages, and pressures that may contribute to negative self-image or self-criticism. Together, couples compassionately discuss the relationship each partner has with their body while addressing the anxiety, shame, perfectionism, or comparison that often accompany body image struggles. Through increased self-awareness and the experience of being known and accepted by their partner, people can begin to feel more grounded, confident, and connected to themselves. When they are more intimately connected to themselves, they are also able to more deeply connect to their partner.

Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
So many of my clients are smart, accomplished, capable people, who spend a lot of time agonizing about their body weight or shape. I help clients unlearn cultural and critical messages about their body (from diet culture, social media, or harmful athletic environments) to build body trust, body autonomy, and body respect. We work on taking a body neutral approach, so that you have a strong relationship with your body on both the good and bad days.

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.
