It is hard when you do not like the image you see in the mirror. I can help you see yourself more clearly and get to a place where you do not hate your body.

Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
We address Body Image by dismantling the colonial and carceral standards that tell us our bodies are "wrong" or "unruly." Using liberation theology and somatic work, we help you reclaim your physical form as a site of sanctuary and power. Our work is to move you from self-surveillance to a state of embodied autonomy.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I take a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to supporting clients struggling with body image concerns. I focus on understanding how body image develops in the context of experiences, relationships, and societal pressures, rather than simply trying to “fix” it. Together, we explore patterns of self-criticism, shame, and avoidance while cultivating self-compassion and acceptance.
I integrate somatic, parts-informed, and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients reconnect with their bodies, regulate emotional responses, and build healthier relationships with themselves. My approach is relational and client-centered, emphasizing understanding, empowerment, and practical tools to support lasting change in how clients feel, move, and relate to their bodies.

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Struggling with body image can feel like being at war with your own skin, constantly trapped in cycles of harsh self-criticism, comparison, and chronic dissatisfaction. I help individuals transform their relationship with their bodies by looking beneath the surface of food and appearance to heal the root causes of this distress. Our work together integrates powerful brain-body therapies like EMDR and Brainspotting to process stored trauma, societal conditioning, or painful memories that impact how you view yourself. At the same time, we use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to compassionately understand the parts of you utilizing body criticism as a protective shield, while CBT and DBT offer practical tools to quiet negative self-talk and manage daily distress. Together, we will work toward rewriting your story—moving away from body shame and toward a place of genuine body neutrality, self-compassion, and internal peace.

Reshma Rampersad
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you are fighting your body for existing, relief cannot come fast enough. My mindful approach allows space to once again build a relationship with your body that is more validating than critical. Using a combination of ACT techniques I help you learn to accept and love your body just the way it is. You are enough as you are.
