Paulina Birgiolaite
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW, CMNCS
Struggling with body image can feel like carrying around a constant, critical inner voice. It can impact your confidence, relationships, and overall well-being. Together, we work on shifting that internal dialogue, reducing body-focused distress, and building a more neutral, compassionate relationship with your body.

Joanna Vergoth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, NCPsyA
Body image concerns are rarely just about appearance — they are often connected to trauma, shame, relational wounds, or early attachment experiences. I work with adults who struggle with body dissatisfaction, binge eating, or chronic self-criticism. Through Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic exploration, and compassion-focused approaches, we gently uncover the origins of body-based shame and cultivate a more respectful, integrated relationship with your body. Healing involves reconnecting with your body as a source of wisdom.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Often times, the way we attribute our self worth is through our body image overlooking our whole selves leading to negative perceptions and low self-esteem. By integrating hypnotherapy, you can overcome your body image challenges and embrace a more balanced and fulfilling life. The transformation achieved through this therapeutic process not only enhances your self-esteem but also contributes to your overall emotional and mental well-being.

Reshma Rampersad
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you are fighting your body for existing, relief cannot come fast enough. My mindful approach allows space to once again build a relationship with your body that is more validating than critical. Using a combination of ACT techniques I help you learn to accept and love your body just the way it is. You are enough as you are.
