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.

I work with individuals struggling with body image concerns, body dissatisfaction, and self-criticism. Therapy focuses on reducing shame, calming comparison, and understanding how control, worth, and identity have become tied to appearance.
