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.

Larissa Crane, LICSW, RYT
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW, EMDR Certified
Our relationship with our bodies can deeply impact how we see ourselves, connect with others, and experience everyday life. I help clients explore the thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that contribute to body dissatisfaction and self-criticism. Together, we work toward developing a more compassionate relationship with your body, letting go of unrealistic expectations, and building confidence that is rooted in who you are—not simply how you look.
