Living in our world and culture, being bombarded by images of the "ideal" body every day, it is no surprise there is a rise in body image insecurities and disordered eating patterns. Finding ease and contentment in your own body can be a painful struggle, but it is possible. Therapy can help you unpack the familial, social and systemic influences contributing to negative body image and self-worth, creating a path towards healing and the freedom to live in harmony with your authentic self.

Online Therapy and Counseling Until Midnight by Dr. John Silver
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Ph.D.
Our first sense of ourselves comes from our body. We know we are alive and separate from the Mother. If the mothering is not adequate the infant will not have a good sense of self. This will follow them throughout their development. It is the root of later eating disorders and body image problems. Self-awareness and insight may be able to mediate these issues and may also be a source of energy for growth. We have been helping people to grow from their psychopathologies for 30 years using classical and the new evidence based theories and techniques.

Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
Often my clients suffer from body image issues. This often causes anxiety, depression, social anxiety and confidence issues. It is difficult to show up confident to a date, at school or work when you are feeling self-conscious or not good about all or part of your body. I have had this sort of anxiety in the past and I have worked with many women and men to resolve body image issues. You can schedule a 30 minute complimentary session on my website to explore working together. I hope you will do this for yourself. I work in Boulder, CO and by zoom from anywhere.

Body image issues occur in both women and men and are often driven by societal, cultural, and familial expectations. Our therapists help you explore how these expectations have impacted your own image and to utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift the narrative regarding your body.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
We are born happy in our own skin. As kids, we are curious about our bodies and enjoy exploring them. Then something goes wrong. A well-meaning parent suggests we skip dessert, and the dolls we play with are so anatomically inaccurate they would fall over if they were humans. Then we start to attend school and become more aware of the larger culture. We notice only certain types of bodies are portrayed in the media. Our peers and our social media tell us we should look a particular way. This story may sound familiar, and sadly, it’s a common one. Unfortunately, for so many of us, the dissatisfaction with our bodies starts when we are young and persists for many years, particularly if we don’t start to examine how we think. Together, through radical self-acceptance, fat positivity, and the anti-diet framework we can begin to work toward healing.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I offer a nurturing and non-judgmental space for clients struggling with body image concerns, employing a holistic approach that combines various therapeutic tools to address each person's unique experience. Through Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, we delve into the roots of body image issues, working together to shift perceptions and foster a healthier relationship with oneself. This process is about more than just addressing concerns with appearance; it's about understanding and transforming the way one feels about their body at a deeper level. By integrating these strategies, I support clients in developing self-compassion, improving self-esteem, and embracing a more positive body image. My role is to guide and empower you through this journey of self-discovery and acceptance, providing the tools and encouragement needed to cultivate a more loving and accepting view of your body.

Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, Trauma-Informed
This is a topic I'm hugely passionate about. As someone who grew up in an environment where I felt very out of place and struggled with body issues my goal is to acknowledge societal pressures and also find ways clients can feel good in their body and appreciate it for what it does for them.
