Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Not only is having a negative body image difficult but if not attended to, individuals can develop Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD). Those with BDD struggle with similar concerns such as preoccupation with flaws and a distorted perception of their features, but they also engage in compulsive behaviors and avoid social situations due to shame and disgust. They have such a distorted view of their body that is considered extreme by others. Examples include getting a nose job to fix their nose that wasn’t “too big” in the eyes of others or having a healthy (or even below healthy) Body Mass Index (BMI) and considering themselves to be fat.
Holding a negative body image can quickly begin to affect one’s mental health. Body image issues have been linked to anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and eating disorders. It is crucial to seek professional help if you are experiencing any of these mental health concerns in addition to body image issues.

I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore the experiences, beliefs, and messages that have shaped the way you see yourself while helping you develop greater self-acceptance and a healthier relationship with your body. Together, we'll work toward replacing self-criticism with self-compassion so you can live with greater confidence, freedom, and authenticity.

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.
