Sara Denman
Psychologist, Psy.D
Unfortunately in our culture people tend to feel their value is based on looks, particularly body image. Because so much focus is placed on our bodies, the way we feel about ourselves is almost always an issue even if it isn't what has brought someone to therapy originally. It is very rewarding working with someone to improve the way they feel about themselves and as a result, increased self-confidence follows.

Erica McArn
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The perception and view one holds of their body is an integral part of how they experience their life as it often impacts their interactions with others as well as interactions with self and their environment as it is a self-reflection of how one perceives their appearance. In addition, it contributes to self-esteem and internal thoughts of self. A negative sense of self or negative body image can significantly effect a person's ability to relate to others as well as the world around them and often leads to other mental health issues, such as depression, relationship issues, and social anxiety.
Shifting perceptions of self can be hard and often takes personal commitment, self-compassion, and the willingness to step outside of one's comfort zone. Utilizing a person-centered and holistic approach, I work with clients, meeting them where they are on their journey, to develop reasonable and achievable treatment goals.

Yael Sherne, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
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.

Taylor Swing
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Are your negative thoughts about your body keeping you from enjoying your life? Do you constantly compare yourself to others? We all desire healthy relationships both with others and ourselves. The relationship we have with our bodies can be complicated. Media, the diet industry, previous experiences, and our own thoughts about our body can impact our self image and intimacy with others. I use a Health At Every Size (HAES®) and body liberation framework to support you in your goals. Through therapy, acceptance and peace within our bodies can grow and be nurtured to help you live your fullest life.
