Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Body image concerns are some of the most common conversations people have in building a satisfying sexual life. Body image concerns can also deeply affect self-esteem, confidence, emotional well-being, and other relationship dynamics. Couples therapy provides a supportive space to explore the experiences, messages, and pressures that may contribute to negative self-image or self-criticism. Together, couples compassionately discuss the relationship each partner has with their body while addressing the anxiety, shame, perfectionism, or comparison that often accompany body image struggles. Through increased self-awareness and the experience of being known and accepted by their partner, people can begin to feel more grounded, confident, and connected to themselves. When they are more intimately connected to themselves, they are also able to more deeply connect to their partner.

Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
Living under the pressures of diet culture and social media can severely fracture your relationship with your physical self. Utilizing evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and parts of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) frameworks, I help individuals challenge deep-seated, unrealistic appearance standards and self-critical thought distortions. Together, we unpack the family, cultural, and societal origins of these beliefs, working to replace avoidance behaviors and body-checking habits with sustainable self-compassion, resilience, and body neutrality.
