Ilah Brock - Central Valley Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht
One of the most amazing tools I have been able to experience is creating a new self image of myself / my body to affect my goal of releasing the extra weight. In hypnosis I help you create your self image of how you wish to appear and what that looks like, feels like, even smell and touch. This is an incredible way approaching that path of raising your self-esteem!

Mary Karlan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Work
I am experienced working with young adults struggling with body image issues such as body dysmorphia, Bulimia, Anorexia Nervosa, and being overweight. Social media can be great in many ways, however, young people today are increasingly feeling that they always have to look “camera ready!” People are judged on their instagram photos and how many “likes” they get, and this can make body image take center stage and ;therefore, cause low self-esteem.

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.

Campbell Teen & Family Therapy, Inc.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LCSW, LPCC, ACSW, APCC, AMFT
Body Image issue may be a sign of an eating disorder. Some symptoms of an eating disorder are if your teen begins to eat healthy, cutting out certain food groups that are “bad” or “unhealthy,” deciding to be a vegetarian or vegan but taking it to an extreme. You may notice your teen pushing food around their plate but not eating it, developing excessive rules around food that seems above and beyond those of a typical teen.
At Campbell Teen & Family Therapy, we offer treatment for all eating disorders. Our philosophy is that it takes a team. This team consists of the family, the therapist, the primary care doctor and a dietitian. We partner with Bay Area Nutrition, to make access to dietitian services easy and convenient, they are located next door to us! We allow our patients to use whichever medical doctor they are comfortable with. If your doctor is not an eating disorder specialist and you cannot get into an eating disorder specialist doctor due to wait lists, then we can help to coach your doctor on the tests needed to assess for an eating disorder and on what our program requires for medical monitoring.
