Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
Our relationship with our body is deeply shaped by culture, family, trauma, and identity. Together we explore shame, comparison, and disconnection, helping you build a more compassionate, embodied relationship with yourself rooted in respect and agency. I am body positive and deeply respectful of the body as a source of wisdom. I bring curiosity and support of helping you to also hear the wisdom and medicine of your body.

Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I create a safe space for people to talk about and explore body image issues. Together, we will look at dominant cultural narratives, societal messaging, and internalized narratives around how your body is supposed to be. We will also dive deep into trauma and its impact on how you see and feel in you body.

Cynthia Cerrato
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Certified in Holistic Integrative Health
I understand the complex relationship many individuals have with body image, influenced by cultural standards, societal pressures, and personal experiences. My journey has shaped my commitment to helping others navigate their body image struggles in a supportive and culturally sensitive environment. At Corazon Y Aire, I specialize in addressing body image issues by integrating cultural insights that resonate with the BIPOC community. I recognize the impact of cultural beauty ideals, familial expectations, and media portrayals on how we perceive ourselves. Through compassionate dialogue and empowering therapeutic practices, I work to challenge negative self-perceptions, fostering a healthier relationship with one’s body.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
We are all born into a world where our bodies are constantly under scrutiny. The race to look and feel good in our skin can be an exhausting one, both physically and emotionally. My particular experience is that of a gay man trying to fit into a culture that puts a huge pressure on body image, sexual currency and attractiveness. These issues can be extremely hard to navigate and can lead to anxiety, depression and low self-worth. Together we will work on building a more robust sense of self which will allow you to feel more comfortable in your skin.

Body image issues, including negative body image perception lead us to see our bodies as different from how they actually look. I will help you to determine the root causes of your body image issues and help heal them and help you to develop a healthier perception of your body.

Rima Danielle Jomaa
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Body image struggles run deeper than how we look — they're rooted in how we feel about ourselves, our worthiness, and our right to take up space. I work with clients using CBT, inner child work, and hypnotherapy to gently untangle the beliefs and patterns underneath body dissatisfaction. The goal isn't to love every inch of yourself immediately — it's to stop letting your body be the enemy and start building a relationship with yourself that feels safe and kind.

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.

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.

Stephanie Hansen
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Body image struggles can quietly shape how you see yourself, move through the world, and relate to others, often leaving you feeling disconnected, self-critical, and exhausted. I offer compassionate, nonjudgmental therapy for individuals navigating negative body image, chronic self-judgment, and persistent dissatisfaction with their appearance. Our work gently explores the emotional roots of these patterns, helping you reconnect with your body, soften self-criticism, and build a more respectful, trusting relationship with yourself. You deserve to feel at home in your body — grounded, worthy, and free to live fully.
