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.

Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
As my clinical research has been focused on how to improve our relationship to our bodies, I work with individuals seeking to reconnect with their bodies through compassion and curiosity rather than control. My approach invites exploration of how cultural, relational, and internalized messages shape self-perception, fostering greater self-acceptance and shifting form objectification to embodiment.
