Body Image
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Body image concerns are often rooted in early relational experience and internalized emotional patterns. My work integrates psychoanalytic thinking, clinical sexology, and somatic awareness to support a more compassionate and embodied relationship with the body. This process helps patients reconnect with their sense of self beyond shame and self-judgment.

Debra Younger
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LPC, LMHC, CCPT
Through an Internal Family Systems lens, how we view our Body Image, is usually a result of early childhood trauma or attachment wounds.
Using IFS we are able to identify the source of the wounds or trauma and heal them, which allows us to create a more positive Body Image.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you're reading this you're probably wanting to feel better about how you look. You might not like my approach then, because my approach is to help you feel better about how you feel.
Instead of taking a cognitive approach to adjust your thinking about self-image, we can take a somatic approach, working with the charge of discomfort that can come up around body stuff, and finding ways to lower the intensity of that charge.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We will explore root cause of your body dysmorphia and disordered eating issue to process and heal the memory/event/emotions/beliefs in a safe and loving way, usually with a childhood regression. We will also release the old thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that no longer serve you and reframe/rewire them with new healthy programming through goals we customize in your hypnotic recordings together. I also provide those with body dysmorphic disorder a took kit to proactively dismantle impusles before they arrive and to override maladaptive choices that hurt you and make decisions that support your new goal of health, vitality and inner peace. Ultimately, you are returned to safety again through emotional regulation.
