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.

Whole Wellness Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Our therapists at Whole Wellness Therapy are passionate about the connection between our body and mind. Our therapy team is comprised of clinicians who have each had their own internal dissonance between body and mind, therefore, we understand how much our mind impacts how we see our body, treat our body, and respond to our body. For our clients struggling with their body image, we start with jumping into their perspective to get a clear picture of what distortions might be present in their own perceptions, and work from the mind into the physical body to create more unity between body and mind, by building self-compassion that manifests into self-love, acceptance, and confidence.
