Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Body image concerns rarely develop in isolation. They are often shaped by family messages, culture, trauma, racism, sexism, ableism, neurodivergence, chronic illness, disability, gender expectations, religious experiences, social media, and the countless ways we are taught which bodies are considered worthy, acceptable, attractive, productive, healthy, or "normal." For many people, body image is deeply connected to belonging, safety, identity, visibility, self-worth, and the ways our bodies have been perceived, treated, regulated, or judged throughout our lives.
This work is grounded in an understanding that our relationships with our bodies are shaped not only by personal experiences, but also by larger cultural, historical, and systemic forces. Exploration may include the impacts of racism, colonialism, anti-fat bias, ableism, sexism, cisheteronormativity, beauty standards, diet culture, healthism, medical trauma, and other systems that communicate which bodies are valued and which are marginalized. Particular attention is given to the ways intersecting identities such as race, culture, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, disability, chronic illness, spirituality, and socioeconomic experiences influence embodiment and body image.
My approach moves beyond surface-level body image concerns and into a deeper exploration of embodiment, nervous system experiences, identity, self-worth, intimacy, sexuality, sensory experiences, and belonging. Attention is given to the ways internalized messages, shame, comparison, perfectionism, masking, trauma, and cultural expectations may shape your relationship with your body. Exploration may also include the impacts of chronic illness, disability, neurodivergence, hormonal changes, body changes across the lifespan, and experiences of living in a body that may not align with societal expectations or dominant cultural norms.
My work is informed by Health at Every Size (HAES), body liberation, neurodiversity-affirming, disability-affirming, and liberation-oriented frameworks. Rather than focusing on weight, appearance, or changing your body to fit external standards, therapy supports developing a more compassionate, curious, and trusting relationship with yourself. Particular attention is given to reconnecting with bodily wisdom, interoception, sensory experiences, pleasure, rest, nourishment, movement, and the body's capacity to communicate needs, limits, emotions, and desires.
My intention is to support you in gently untangling inherited and internalized narratives while cultivating greater self-trust, self-compassion, embodied authenticity, safety, respect, choice, and freedom within your relationship with yourself and your body. Often, this work involves reclaiming embodiment on your own terms and creating space for your body to be experienced as a home rather than a problem to solve or vessel to abandon.

Talia Chanoff
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I offer support around body image from a compassionate, person-centered perspective that recognizes how our relationships with our bodies are shaped by culture, unique identities, lived experience, and survival. Rather than focusing on fixing or controlling the body, our work centers on building curiosity and a more respectful relationship with your physical self. Together, we might explore how body image connects to identity, worth, and belonging, and work toward greater sense of ease and trust in your body as it is.

Miriam Adrianowicz
Psychologist, PsyD
Body image is a deeply personal topic that many people struggle with. Problems with body image usually surface at a relatively young age and can stem from many sources. Together, we'll explore what it feels like to be in your body, and take steps to figure out why it is you feel the way you do while incorporating self-compassion practices. With deeper understanding comes an increased sense of control and agency.
