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.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Often times, the way we attribute our self worth is through our body image overlooking our whole selves leading to negative perceptions and low self-esteem. By integrating hypnotherapy, you can overcome your body image challenges and embrace a more balanced and fulfilling life. The transformation achieved through this therapeutic process not only enhances your self-esteem but also contributes to your overall emotional and mental well-being.

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.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Struggles with body image are often tied to shame, trauma, and the pressures of diet culture. In addition to IFS and mindfulness, I draw on specialized training in Intuitive Eating, Health at Every Size (HAES), Attuned Eating, and Body Trust approaches. These frameworks recognize how dieting and cultural messages can fuel disordered eating patterns such as restriction, bingeing, or cycles of shame. Therapy focuses on building self-compassion, reconnecting with body wisdom, and creating a healthier, more sustainable relationship with food and self. I provide diagnostic clarity when body image concerns overlap with eating disorders, depression, or trauma.

Dr. Jacqueline Bentley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Our social culture has created a nonrealistic standard for the way that we should look. However, instead of viewing these standards as unrealistic and unattainable, we continue to beat ourselves up for falling short of the way we believe we should look. I will strive to help you process through your own thoughts and feelings of body image and help to create a more realistic, and healthy perspective of yourself.

NewBirth Counseling & Wellness Group LLC
Professional Christian Counselor, Certified Christian Counselor, Certified Life Coach & Consultant with a PhD in Psychology
The embodied self is a psychospiritual concept that hosts existential questions of “Who am I? What am I? Where does my value lay?” Our relationship with our bodies can be fraught with neglect and dissociation as we learn to ignore the many messages it sends to us. The embodied self can be experienced in a positive or negative manner, and it is strongly related to self-esteem, self-image, and one’s satisfaction with personal and sexual intimacy. A positive sense of an embodied self is associated with autonomy, functionality, joy and fulfillment. However, chronic illness, disability and accidents, and negative social sanctions can result in a sense of disembodiment. Call our office for more detailed information.

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.
