Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Diet culture has permeated our ideals and expectations of ourselves and most particularly can inform the relationships with have with food and movement. I work with clients from a HAES and intuitive understanding of how to embrace our bodies, how support out bodies to rest and replenish adaptively and how to frame nourishment and movement as affirming rather than punitive.

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.

Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
Here's a concise therapist-directory version:
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with their bodies. Many individuals struggle with body dissatisfaction, negative self-talk, appearance-related anxiety, emotional eating, perfectionism, or the impact of societal and cultural pressures. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, improve self-esteem, cultivate body acceptance, and focus on overall well-being rather than appearance. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and at peace in their own skin.

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.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults with anxiety and depression. Within the symptoms of these disorders are often unhealthy relationships with your self and body. Learning to love yourself again is rooted in efforts of both changing your cognition, changing your behaviors, and learning to appreciate yourself again. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your negative thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Ciera Coyan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I work with clients who have difficult relationships with their body. We work on unlearning the overwhelming message that their body needs to be or look a certain way in order to be acceptable. We unpack the onslaught of harmful body messages they've likely experienced in their life. We work towards body neutrality and a better appreciation for the joy and pleasure their body can experience, instead of what it looks like.

Sherry Murray
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Our society, and some families, put too much emphasis on our looks, and some can be very cruel in regards to body image. If you don't like the way you look, and are struggling with feeling like you belong, or are okay, you are not alone. I provide a safe, accepting atmosphere to work together to examine where your beliefs about your body image came from, and how to make those beliefs more accurate.

Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I believe that we are all victims of our culture's harmful messages about body size, shape and appearance. Rather than being taught to appreciate all our bodies do for us and trust our bodies' signals, so many of us have been taught to control our bodies and deprive our bodies of nourishment, joy, and rest. I am passionate about supporting people in unlearning these harmful messages and building a healthier, more compassionate relationship with their bodies.

Samantha Kingma
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Have you noticed that you haven’t been feeling quite like yourself? Like something feels off, but you’re not exactly sure why? No matter how hard you work, you always feel behind and can't seem to ever catch up on your to-do list. Maybe you keep thinking that you "should" be doing better and you "shouldn't" be struggling this way. You want to be present, calm, and confident, but you aren’t sure how to get there. It is possible for you to feel like yourself again and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there.
I help teens, adults, and couples who are feeling stuck and disconnected to find freedom and relief. I'll collaborate with you to notice the themes and patterns occurring in your life that might be causing problems and then work alongside you to find new options and solutions to address those patterns.
Whether you are experiencing anxiety, dealing with past trauma, relationship difficulties, or just think it might be helpful to talk to someone about how you are feeling, I’d love to talk with you about how I can help. Visit my website to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about whether I might be the right therapist for you.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Many people struggle with body image because of the messages they have received from family, peers, culture, and social media about how they "should" look. In therapy, we'll explore how these experiences have shaped the way you view yourself and work toward developing a more compassionate and accepting relationship with your body. Together, we'll also examine your relationship with food and identify sustainable, balanced approaches that support both your physical and emotional well-being, helping to reduce the self-criticism and distress that often accompany body image concerns.

Vanessa Hooper
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, PMH-C
Your relationship with your body often has a story behind it, shaped by family, culture, and past
experience. We'll work to separate what you were taught to believe about your body
from what is actually true, with compassion instead of judgment.

Josh Spell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Body image does not only include how we perceive our body, but also how we feel, think and experience our body. I believe that learning to identify the systems that impress a certain belief about how one sees their body, building body trust and tolerance for emotions and learning to interrupt automatic beliefs about one's body can help bring someone closer to true embodiment and ease.

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.

We understand the depth of grief, sadness, anger, anxiety that manifests when one is at such odds with their appearance.
