Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Body image issues can stem from a variety of places - but most commonly from family messages (implicit or explicit), cultural messages (social media, TV, movies, magazines), sexual or relational abuse, bullying, or direct body shaming. Body image issues are extremely common, yet vary in severity from occasional negative self-talk to more severe experiences of eating disorders or depression.
Here at Denver Wellness Counseling, treatment for body image and self-esteem, often includes EMDR on life experiences connected to the negative body image and/or received messages - such as experiences of bullying, critical statements from a family member, witnessing body shaming from media sources, or any direct negative belief system related to body image or a specific body part (ex. I hate my stomach). Therapy for body image issues will also typically include a resourcing component, which involves strengthening or building adaptive neural networks and messages regarding identity and body image, such as "I am valuable," "My body is strong," "My body has created life."

Barbara Clark
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, MS, LPCC, Brainspotting Certified
Struggles with body image often go deeper than appearance and can impact confidence, relationships, and daily life. I help clients explore the underlying thoughts and emotions connected to body image while building a more compassionate and balanced relationship with themselves. Therapy focuses on reducing shame and increasing self-acceptance.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Struggles with body image are often tied to shame, trauma, and the pressures of diet culture. In addition to IFS and mindfulness, I draw on specialized training in Intuitive Eating, Health at Every Size (HAES), Attuned Eating, and Body Trust approaches. These frameworks recognize how dieting and cultural messages can fuel disordered eating patterns such as restriction, bingeing, or cycles of shame. Therapy focuses on building self-compassion, reconnecting with body wisdom, and creating a healthier, more sustainable relationship with food and self. I provide diagnostic clarity when body image concerns overlap with eating disorders, depression, or trauma.

Megan Ramos
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
Bodies are so deeply intelligent, and come in all different expressions. Sadly we live in a culture that teaches us to dishonor this nature, asking us to fit beauty in a box. This can cause so much trauma and distortion in how we learn to relate with our form. I help individuals break through this conditioning and difest what may be held around it, so that a natural appreciation and attunement with self can emerge.

Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
Often my clients suffer from body image issues. This often causes anxiety, depression, social anxiety and confidence issues. It is difficult to show up confident to a date, at school or work when you are feeling self-conscious or not good about all or part of your body. I have had this sort of anxiety in the past and I have worked with many women and men to resolve body image issues. You can schedule a 30 minute complimentary session on my website to explore working together. I hope you will do this for yourself. I work in Boulder, CO and by zoom from anywhere.
