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.

Samantha Schaefer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
When the way you see your body is shaped by criticism, comparison, or shame, it can affect every part of your life. I offer a compassionate space to explore your relationship with your body, rebuild trust in yourself, and move toward body neutrality and self-respect.

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.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As women, we are bombarded with messages from culture to media to significant people in our lives who make unnecessary comments about what we should look like or how much we should weigh. I come from a health at every size and self-acceptance approach to support a more compassionate and neutral stance towards your body image. Your body has done so much to support you up to this point and you deserve to accept yourself exactly as you are, while making mindful changes.
