Jess Benedetto, Still Mind Therapist
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, MA Mental Health Counseling & Behavioral Medicine, 200-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher
We support clients in developing a healthy sense of identity and self-worth, learning to accept, appreciate, and nurture their bodies, minds, relationships, and lives.
Still Mind Therapist founder Jess Benedetto offers trauma-informed individual therapy, relationship counseling, and wellness coaching focused on how our unmet needs, misunderstood minds, and past experiences contribute to personal, relational, and physical challenges. We believe that when you have a safe, judgment-free space to cultivate a deep awareness of how and why unhealthy patterns developed, you can begin to rebuild trust in yourself and others and move toward healing and meaningful change. Still Mind is a place where your needs, goals, and vision lead the therapeutic process, and where the path to healing looks different for every person and relationship.

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.

Elizabeth Hammond
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
In a culture that profits from our self-doubt, reclaiming your body is a radical act of self-care. Body image work isn't about forced "body positivity" or loving how you look every single day; it’s about embodiment—the ability to live inside your body rather than viewing it as a project to be fixed. I help women and LGBTQIA+ individuals navigate the grief of letting go of the "ideal" body and transitioning toward body neutrality. We will work to dismantle the external voices of shame so you can reconnect with your physical self with respect and autonomy.
