Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
As my clinical research has been focused on how to improve our relationship to our bodies, I work with individuals seeking to reconnect with their bodies through compassion and curiosity rather than control. My approach invites exploration of how cultural, relational, and internalized messages shape self-perception, fostering greater self-acceptance and shifting form objectification to embodiment.

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.

Jessi Blank
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Having had personal experience with body issues as well as anorexia nervosa when I was a teenager, I have special consideration for those suffering with body distortions. Exploring these issues, I implore psychodynamic principles to help clients better understand the roots of where these issues developed, helping them to further grasp the function these distortions may serve, while also teaching them better ways to relate to their bodies- such as incorporating intuitive eating and observing while also directing clients how to have recorrective experiences with how they can perceive self through healthier lenses.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Body image concerns are often rooted in early relational experience and internalized emotional patterns. My work integrates psychoanalytic thinking, clinical sexology, and somatic awareness to support a more compassionate and embodied relationship with the body. This process helps patients reconnect with their sense of self beyond shame and self-judgment.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in the Cambodian Cultural District near Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its occupational therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
