Psychologist, PhD
Does this sound familiar?
You struggle with negative thoughts about your body, basing your worth on your appearance, obsessing about your weight and shape, and constantly comparing yourself to others. Your self-esteem is tied to the number on your scale. You may even find that your relationships and ability to enjoy life are suffering. You may avoid wearing certain kinds of clothes, being in photos, attending social events, swimming, pursuing hobbies, or trying new things. Deep down, you yearn for a more peaceful, connected and fulfilling life where your time and energy are focused on the things that truly matter to you.
With Health at Every Size (HAES), Intuitive Eating (IE), Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), and other evidence-based approaches, I will help you cultivate self-worth and body respect so you can be kind to yourself and redirect your energy to what fills you with purpose and joy. I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with negative body image and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD).

Online Therapy and Counseling Until Midnight by Dr. John Silver
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Ph.D.
Our first sense of ourselves comes from our body. We know we are alive and separate from the Mother. If the mothering is not adequate the infant will not have a good sense of self. This will follow them throughout their development. It is the root of later eating disorders and body image problems. Self-awareness and insight may be able to mediate these issues and may also be a source of energy for growth. We have been helping people to grow from their psychopathologies for 30 years using classical and the new evidence based theories and techniques.
