Keri Downs, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Keri Downs specializes in helping children, adolescents, and young adults improve their body image and self-esteem. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Downs utilizes a combination of evidence-based therapies to address the complex factors that influence body image, including societal pressures, personal experiences, and emotional well-being.
Body image issues can significantly impact mental health, leading to conditions such as body dysmorphic disorder, eating disorders, and depression. Dr. Downs employs cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge negative thoughts about their bodies. She also integrates mindfulness practices to promote self-acceptance and reduce the impact of societal beauty standards.
Dr. Downs’s approach is tailored to each client’s unique needs, ensuring personalized care that addresses both the symptoms and underlying causes of body image concerns. She creates a supportive and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can explore their feelings and develop a healthier relationship with their bodies.
In addition to in-person sessions, Dr. Downs offers telehealth services in over 40 states, making it convenient for clients to access high-quality care from the comfort of their own homes. Her goal is to empower clients to achieve a positive body image and enhance their overall well-being through compassionate and collaborative therapy.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults with anxiety and depression. Within the symptoms of these disorders are often unhealthy relationships with your self and body. Learning to love yourself again is rooted in efforts of both changing your cognition, changing your behaviors, and learning to appreciate yourself again. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your negative thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Body image affects far more than how you feel when you look in a mirror. It can shape confidence, sexuality, intimacy, relationships, self-worth, and how comfortable you feel taking up space in the world. I help clients explore the messages and experiences that have shaped their relationship with their bodies, challenge shame and unrealistic expectations, and develop a more compassionate and authentic sense of embodiment. The goal isn’t to convince yourself that you must love every part of your body—it’s to help your body become a place you can live in with greater acceptance, confidence, and freedom.
