Madison, Wisconsin therapist: Amy Look, psychologist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Amy Look

Psychologist, PhD, LP
Exhausted by overthinking, people-pleasing, and holding yourself to impossible standards? From the outside, it looks like you’ve got it all together - you're thoughtful, capable, and high-achieving. But inside, you feel uncertain, overwhelmed, and stuck. If this resonates, I can help! I specialize in skills-focused therapy for adults who want real change, not just support. Our work together will empower you toward a life that's defined by your values, not your critical inner voice. I’ll use evidence-based strategies to teach you how to calm your mind, cope with stress, build confidence, and strengthen relationships. Call or send me a message to discuss more about what it would be like to work together.

Bethesda, Maryland therapist: Shelby Willoughby, licensed clinical social worker
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Shelby Willoughby

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Are you experiencing difficulty with life adjustments or social connectedness? I am passionate about working with those who are struggling with eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, grief, relational and social difficulties, and members of the LQBTQIA+ community. I believe that the foundation of developing an authentic self is understanding the body's response to life experiences and understanding how it functions under stress. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and trauma-aware space to begin healing. In settings such as partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient, I have worked with adults and teens experiencing binge eating, purging, anorexia, orthorexia, excessive exercise, OSFED, ARFID, and body image issues. Throughout sessions, I complete evaluations to determine whether you or a loved one requires more intensive/supportive eating disorder treatment. In addition, I complete bariatric evaluations that are required for the surgical process. This service helps determine readiness, address any concerns about underlying eating disorder behavior, provide pre/post therapeutic support, and explore alternatives to surgery. I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to assist patient's needs and use collaborative methodologies to facilitate supportive communication, reconnection, problem solving, and positive decision-making with teens, adults, and families. I hope to hear from you and look forward to jump starting your mental health journey.

Owings Mills, Maryland therapist: Marnie Kahn, counselor/therapist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Marnie Kahn

Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, HeartMath Certified Practitioner
I love to help people improve the way they feel and their overall life experience by teaching them how to shift their thoughts and their focus onto more positive aspects. When we feel better, our life reflects that. Our thoughts/feelings are creative and what most do not know is that they are creating their life unconsciously with their thoughts, and their attention. Most people are focusing on what makes them unhappy, or on what they do not have, their fears or worries, and are convinced that they are not good enough. I am passionate about teaching people how to use their minds and their hearts to create a better and more enjoyable life. Life is supposed to feel good! I can show you how to live a better and more fulfilling life.
