Mary Karlan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Work
I am experienced working with young adults struggling with body image issues such as body dysmorphia, Bulimia, Anorexia Nervosa, and being overweight. Social media can be great in many ways, however, young people today are increasingly feeling that they always have to look “camera ready!” People are judged on their instagram photos and how many “likes” they get, and this can make body image take center stage and ;therefore, cause low self-esteem.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Body image counseling is a specialized form of psychotherapy that focuses on assisting individuals in developing a healthier and more positive relationship with their bodies. Body image is how individuals perceive and feel about their physical appearance, such as size, shape, and overall attractiveness. A negative body image can result in emotional distress, low self-esteem, and the onset of eating disorders or other mental health issues.
Body image therapy aims not to achieve a particular ideal body shape or size but to promote self-acceptance and a positive body image regardless of physical appearance. The therapeutic process is individualized, and the therapist collaborates with the client to address his or her particular requirements and objectives.
If negative body image is significantly affecting your well-being or contributing to mental health issues, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in body image therapy to begin the process of developing a healthier and more positive body image.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We will explore root cause of your body dysmorphia and disordered eating issue to process and heal the memory/event/emotions/beliefs in a safe and loving way, usually with a childhood regression. We will also release the old thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that no longer serve you and reframe/rewire them with new healthy programming through goals we customize in your hypnotic recordings together. I also provide those with body dysmorphic disorder a took kit to proactively dismantle impusles before they arrive and to override maladaptive choices that hurt you and make decisions that support your new goal of health, vitality and inner peace. Ultimately, you are returned to safety again through emotional regulation.
