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.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients with body image concerns by addressing the self-criticism, comparison, perfectionism, and unrealistic standards that often shape how they see themselves. In therapy, we work on challenging distorted thoughts, reducing shame, and building a more compassionate and realistic relationship with the body. My goal is to help clients focus less on constant self-evaluation and more on overall well-being, confidence, and self-acceptance.

Andrea Elkon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Do you find yourself avoiding mirrors or scales? Or...are you constantly weighing yourself? Inspecting yourself? Dressing in ways to hide your body? Do you have rules about eating or exercise? I want to help you feel better about yourself, to calm those self-critical beliefs and feel secure in your skin. Please feel free to reach out to me to learn more about my approach to treating body image.

Body image concerns often develop within the context of culture, relationships, trauma, and personal experiences. Therapy offers a compassionate space to explore these influences, reduce self-criticism, and develop a healthier relationship with yourself grounded in acceptance and self-worth.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in body image, my treatment approach is grounded in fostering self-acceptance, resilience, and a positive relationship with one's body. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based interventions, I work collaboratively with individuals to challenge negative beliefs and behaviors related to body image. By exploring underlying factors such as societal pressures, past traumas, and internalized messages, we develop personalized strategies to promote self-compassion and enhance body appreciation. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care practices, boundary-setting, and building a supportive social network to reinforce positive body image. My goal is to empower individuals to embrace their bodies with confidence, cultivate holistic well-being, and navigate societal standards with authenticity.
