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.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for body image issues, low self-esteem, negative self-image, shame, and emotional struggles related to appearance, identity, and self-worth. Many individuals experiencing body image concerns struggle with anxiety, self-criticism, perfectionism, comparison, social pressure, or feelings of not being “good enough.” These challenges can affect confidence, relationships, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life.
Body image difficulties are often connected to deeper emotional experiences, including past trauma, bullying, criticism, rejection, relationship wounds, or painful life experiences that continue to shape how a person sees themselves. Social media, cultural expectations, and unrealistic standards portrayed in mainstream media can also intensify feelings of inadequacy, insecurity, and emotional distress.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to counseling, helping clients explore and heal the underlying emotional experiences contributing to negative self-image and unhealthy patterns of self-perception. Therapy focuses on helping clients move beyond shame, self-judgment, and unrealistic expectations while developing greater self-acceptance, emotional balance, confidence, and authenticity.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-focused counseling, mindfulness-based strategies, emotional regulation techniques, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and lasting healing. Together, you will explore past experiences, emotional triggers, relationship dynamics, and core beliefs that may be impacting your self-worth and sense of identity today.
Therapy is collaborative, supportive, and personalized to each client’s unique experiences and goals. Brad provides a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where clients can openly process emotional pain, strengthen self-awareness, improve self-esteem, and reconnect with who they truly are beyond external pressures and unrealistic standards.
The goal of therapy is not only to reduce emotional distress, but to help clients develop a healthier relationship with themselves, create lasting emotional resilience, and live with greater confidence, peace, and authenticity. Healing is possible, and you can learn to appreciate yourself for who you truly are while building a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
Virtual counseling and online EMDR therapy sessions are available, offering confidential and convenient access to professional trauma-focused therapy from the comfort of home.
