Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
Here's a concise therapist-directory version:
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with their bodies. Many individuals struggle with body dissatisfaction, negative self-talk, appearance-related anxiety, emotional eating, perfectionism, or the impact of societal and cultural pressures. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, improve self-esteem, cultivate body acceptance, and focus on overall well-being rather than appearance. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and at peace in their own skin.
