Body Image
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.

Counselor/Therapist, LPC, MA Counseling, school counselor K-12th
I believe body image is a huge issue for females and males. I have done a lot of work in this area myself. Helping a client come to a better appreciation and enjoyment of their own body is very rewarding in my work.

Often times, the way we attribute our self worth is through our body image overlooking our whole selves leading to negative perceptions and low self-esteem. By integrating hypnotherapy, you can overcome your body image challenges and embrace a more balanced and fulfilling life. The transformation achieved through this therapeutic process not only enhances your self-esteem but also contributes to your overall emotional and mental well-being.

Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
If a person has a negative view of their body image, it usually stems from negative experiences where a child was made to feel unloved or unsafe around others, if they were the target of some negative judgment, abuse, or trauma. If a belief was formed that they were not good enough/ pretty enough/ perfect enough/ big enough/ safe enough, or felt they had to comply with abuse from a caregiver whom they depended on, or they feel too different compared to others, it affects the way they see themselves and impacts their ability to connect with other people in a healthy way. An example of another such belief can look like "I want to feel/ look attractive, but attractive people get abused/ assaulted". Rapid Transformational Therapy is incredibly effective at helping a person see how those beliefs of poor body/ self-image were trying to help them or protect them. They can then be compassionately released, and new beliefs of empowerment and acceptance created in their place. RTT specializes in transforming people with complete self-acceptance, as that is often the root of so many issues. Ongoing support is given after the session to provide further help.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Have you noticed that you haven’t been feeling quite like yourself? Like something feels off, but you’re not exactly sure why? No matter how hard you work, you always feel behind and can't seem to ever catch up on your to-do list. Maybe you keep thinking that you "should" be doing better and you "shouldn't" be struggling this way. You want to be present, calm, and confident, but you aren’t sure how to get there. It is possible for you to feel like yourself again and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there.
I help teens, adults, and couples who are feeling stuck and disconnected to find freedom and relief. I'll collaborate with you to notice the themes and patterns occurring in your life that might be causing problems and then work alongside you to find new options and solutions to address those patterns.
Whether you are experiencing anxiety, dealing with past trauma, relationship difficulties, or just think it might be helpful to talk to someone about how you are feeling, I’d love to talk with you about how I can help. Visit my website to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about whether I might be the right therapist for you.
