Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CBC
The relationship we have with our physical selves is deeply shaped by societal pressures, personal history, and systemic expectations. If you are struggling with chronic self-criticism, body dissatisfaction, or a feeling of disconnect from your physical form, I offer a gentle, nurturing space to heal that rift. We will explore the external narratives that have impacted your self-perception, work to quiet the inner critic, and build a relationship with your body rooted in neutrality, comfort, and respect.

Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
We do not live in a society that allows us to accept our bodies as they are. We receive message from a young age from parents, friends and media about how we are supposed to look and what it means if we don't look that way. The truth is that you only have one body and there is only so much you can do to control how it looks. Many of us developed unhealthy relationships with food and exercise to change our appearance and are now ready to learn to acceptance our bodies as they are. If you are looking for support to acceptance your body and pursue physical and mental health without trying to lose weight, I offer weight neutral therapy.

If you’re constantly at war with your reflection or caught in a cycle of self-criticism, you’re not alone. We live in a world full of unrealistic standards and loud opinions about how we should look—and it can take a real toll on how we feel in our own skin.
I work with clients to untangle their relationship with their bodies using compassion-based therapy, mindfulness practices, and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work. My approach isn’t about “fixing” your body—it’s about healing how you relate to it. We’ll explore where the harsh inner voice came from, learn to quiet it, and reconnect you with the values and experiences that matter far more than a number on a scale or the shape of a mirror image.
As a long-time psychologist (and a human in this culture too), I know that body image struggles are deeply personal—and deeply valid. I bring humor, warmth, and evidence-based tools to help you move toward body respect, self-compassion, and a healthier, more peaceful relationship with yourself.
You deserve to feel at home in your body—and I’d be honored to help you find your way back there.
