Arpi Isayan, EMDR Therapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in helping clients navigate body image challenges by providing psychoeducation and using a variety of therapeutic approaches, including EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other effective modalities. Through psychoeducation, I help clients understand the underlying factors that contribute to negative body image. EMDR is used to process past experiences or trauma that may impact how clients view themselves, while ACT encourages self-compassion and helps clients align their actions with their values, rather than being driven by societal standards. My goal is to support clients in developing a healthier, more positive relationship with their bodies, fostering confidence and self-acceptance.

Lisa McNelley Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #156096
Who we are is shaped by not only how others perceive us, but also how we perceive ourselves. When we struggle with how we look, it can lead to a deep feeling of inadequacy and shame. For some, it might be perfectionism and excessive behaviors. For others, eating might be the only real option to sooth themselves. Others fall through the cracks, not visibly over or underweight, but caught in the cycle of obsession, compulsion and self-loathing. The pervasiveness of social media, particularly with teens and young adults, has not helped lessen these challenges.
I offer a safe space to unpack the urges, unmet needs, and provide support with the behaviors that are getting in the way of feeling comfortable in your body. My work centers on the whole person; inside and out; and how to address the disconnect. I work with you to identify healthy self-care and coping strategies as we address the underlying issues.

Yasmin Sadik
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, PA, EMDR
Body image issues arise from trauma, mostly from our elders, parents, and bullying by other kids or even adults. EMDR and other therapies can help with that trauma and lead you to a life where you're no longer fixated on your body image; you can be free of your inner critic. This can, conversely, increase self-acceptance.
