Harney & Associates

Many of our clients feel insecure about the reflection they see in the mirror. They may feel betrayed or dismayed by their body. We understand the depth of grief, sadness, anger, anxiety that manifests when one is at such odds with their appearance. Our clinicians are well-equipped to explore the emotions and actions that coexist with body dissatisfaction.

Shannon Mick
Counselor/Therapist, NCC, LPC
Struggling with body image can feel exhausting—especially as an endurance athlete. The mirror, race photos, or even your training clothes can trigger harsh self-criticism, comparison, or a sense that your body is never “enough,” no matter how strong or capable it is. Whether it’s tied to eating disorder recovery, past trauma, performance pressure, or the constant pursuit of an ideal runner’s body, these struggles can steal joy from the sport you love and from everyday life.
In our work together, we gently explore your unique story with your body—how it developed, where the pain points are, and how to shift toward appreciation and respect. Using CBT to challenge unhelpful thoughts, ACT to build self-acceptance, and DBT skills for emotion regulation and mindfulness, we focus on practical steps that honor your athletic lifestyle.
Many clients experience meaningful shifts such as:
Learning to thank their body for what it can do instead of criticizing how it looks.
Reducing body-checking, comparison, and food guilt.
Developing a kinder, more compassionate inner voice.
Rebuilding trust and a healthier relationship with their body on and off the trails.
I regularly share my free downloadable resources, including the Body Talk Activity for Improving Body Image and the Body Image Journal Prompt for Athletes, which we can review and personalize together.
You deserve to feel at home in your body—the same body that carries you through ultras, tough training blocks, and daily life. If negative body image is weighing you down, let’s work on rewriting that story so you can run (and live) with greater freedom, confidence, and strength.

Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Therapist, Betrayal Trauma Therapist & Coach, Sex & Porn Addiction Therapist & Coach. Visit my website 👇
Betrayal, infidelity, pornography use, and sex addiction can deeply affect body image and self-esteem. Betrayed partners may struggle with comparison, feelings of inadequacy, or questioning their attractiveness and worth. A Safe Place To Share coaching can help you rebuild self-confidence, develop a healthier relationship with your body, and separate your self-worth from your partner’s sexual behaviors or choices.

I have worked with individuals, including older adolescents, experiencing symptoms synonymous with "states" of "dis-orders" including anorexia and bulimia, as well as binge-eating disorder. Efforts to reprogram distorted thoughts and images regarding perceptions, as well as retraining healthy habits and relationships with food are usually incorporated into the therapy and treatment programs.

Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Our body image counseling services are dedicated to helping individuals develop a healthier, more positive relationship with their bodies. Recognizing the profound impact that body image can have on overall mental wellness, self-esteem, and daily functioning, we offer a compassionate, supportive setting where clients can explore their feelings about their body and work towards acceptance and self-love.
Empowering Approaches to Improving Body Image
* Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This strategy is fundamental in addressing the negative thought patterns that often underpin poor body image. CBT helps clients identify and critically evaluate their beliefs about their bodies, challenging and changing those that are distorted or self-defeating.
* Mindfulness Practices: Incorporating mindfulness can enhance body awareness and acceptance. Through practices such as mindful eating and body scans, clients learn to experience their body from a place of gratitude and respect, rather than judgment and criticism.
* Media Literacy Education: Our approach includes education on how media images are often manipulated and do not reflect realistic standards. Understanding this can significantly reduce feelings of inadequacy and negative comparison to others.
* Self-Esteem Enhancement: Enhancing a client's overall self-esteem is crucial in improving body image. Therapy focuses on recognizing and cultivating personal strengths and achievements, providing a more balanced and positive self-perception.
Goals of Body Image Counseling
Our primary aim is to empower individuals to see beyond societal standards and embrace their unique qualities. Counseling goals include:
* Increased Body Acceptance: Clients can achieve a greater appreciation and acceptance of their body, recognizing its capabilities and resilience rather than focusing solely on appearance.
* Reduced Impact of Negative Thoughts: Develop the ability to recognize and manage negative thoughts about one's body, replacing them with affirmations and positive self-talk.
* Improved Mental and Emotional Wellbeing: As body image improves, so often does overall mental health, leading to reduced anxiety, less depression, and more positive social interactions.
* Healthier Behaviors: With an improved body image, clients are more likely to engage in healthy behaviors for the right reasons, rather than as a punishment or compensation.
If you're struggling with body image issues, it’s important to remember that you’re not alone. Reach out to us, and let’s work together toward a more positive and accepting view of your body, fostering a healthier, happier you.

Body image can often been a root to many other mental health concerns such as anxiety, depressiveness/isolation, relationship difficulties and eating disorders. They have often been seen as particularly harmful to women. This remains true, but is also a growing concern among men and within certain populations, such as gay men, athletes, etc. etc.

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.
