Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in body image, my treatment approach is grounded in fostering self-acceptance, resilience, and a positive relationship with one's body. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based interventions, I work collaboratively with individuals to challenge negative beliefs and behaviors related to body image. By exploring underlying factors such as societal pressures, past traumas, and internalized messages, we develop personalized strategies to promote self-compassion and enhance body appreciation. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care practices, boundary-setting, and building a supportive social network to reinforce positive body image. My goal is to empower individuals to embrace their bodies with confidence, cultivate holistic well-being, and navigate societal standards with authenticity.

Alexander Fidelman
Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Body image issues stem from early life experiences that create erroneous perceptions of self based on the subconscious negative beliefs: I am not enough, I am not worthy, I am not lovable and others.
5-PATH (The Five Phase Advanced Transformational Hypnotherapy) is a comprehensive way to address and release all negative emotions, perceptions and change the inner programs (early life negative beliefs and subconscious decisions) that trigger those emotions and perceptions.

Heart Bonds Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Body image struggles can quietly impact confidence, relationships, self-worth, and daily life. You might find yourself constantly comparing, criticizing, or feeling disconnected from your body — even if others wouldn’t guess you’re struggling. In therapy, we explore the emotional roots of body image concerns while building a more compassionate, sustainable relationship with yourself. Our approach focuses on reducing shame, challenging unhelpful patterns, and helping you feel more at ease in your own skin.
